You’re at the bottom of a mountain that slopes up at 30 degrees above the horizontal. You have a cannon that shoots cannonballs at an initial speed of 200 m/s. From your position, you ﬁre a cannonball upward toward the mountain slope, with your cannon aimed at an angle of 65 degrees above the horizontal. How far up the mountain does the cannonball travel before it lands? Round to the nearest 100 meters.
