An archer fish spies a meal of a grasshopper sitting on a long stalk of grass at the edge of the pond in which he is swimming. The fish is to successfully spit at and strike the grasshopper, which is 0.200 m away horizontally and 0.435 m above his mouth. What angle (in degrees) above the horizontal must he spit? Assume vfy = 0.
