Answer:

The other angle is 120°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Angle = 60

Speed = 5.0

We need to calculate the range

Using formula of range


R=(v^2\sin(2\theta))/(g)...(I)

The range for the other angle is


R=(v^2\sin(2(\alpha-\theta)))/(g)....(II)

Here, distance and speed are same

On comparing both range


(v^2\sin(2\theta))/(g)=(v^2\sin(2(\alpha-\theta)))/(g)


\sin(2\theta)=\sin(2*(\alpha-\theta))


\sin120=\sin2(\alpha-60)


120=2\alpha-120


\alpha=(120+120)/(2)


\alpha=120^(\circ)

Hence, The other angle is 120°
