An archer fires an arrow at a target that is a horizontal distance d = 95 m away; the bull’s-eye of the target is at same height as the release height of the arrow. Randomized Variables d = 95 m  At what angle, in degrees above the horizontal, must the arrow be released to hit the bull’s-eye if the arrow's initial speed is 34 m/s?
