A basketball player is shooting some hoops, on one particular shot the ball leaves her hands 12.5m horizonally away from the hoop, and 1.8m vertically off the ground. Let's say she shoots a particular shot with a velocity of 12m/s at an angle of 51.4° with respect to the vertical (Assume no air resistance)
