Question

A projectile is shot at a hill, the base of which is 290 m away. The projectile is shot at 60° above the horizontal with an initial speed of 78 m/s. The hill can be approximated by a plane sloped at 21° to the horizontal. Relative to the coordinate system shown in the following figure, the equation of this straight line is 

y = x tan(21°) − 111.

 Where on the hill does the projectile land? (Enter your answer in meters as an ordered pair in the form xy. Do not include units in your answer.)
