A minigolf ball is on a perfectly horizontal surface, x = 2 m away from the center of the hole. There is a small obstacle in the way, so the ball cannot simply roll to the hole –it must go up in the air. The player is able to shoot with an initial speed v0 = 7 m/s. The ball can be launched at TWO possible angles with the horizontal for the ball to get in the hole. We want your to find these two angles.
