Assume Point A is 1.28 m from the ground. (The top of the target was 1.52 m and point A is 24 cm from the top so 1.52 - .24 = 1.28 m). You now know the coordinates of 3 points on the parabolic path. You know the coordinates of the starting point and point A and the landing point. The x coordinate is the distance from the target along the ground and the y coordinate is the height above the ground. You can know find the quadratic equation through these 3 points using the graphical calculator. Round your a, b, and c coefficients to the thousandths.(points) are(0, 1.39), (18, 1.28), (45,0)
