Number of problems:	1  5  10  25
Question type(s):	Solve for distance (horizontal displacement, x)  Solve for height (vertical displacement, y)  Solve for time, t  Solve for velocity, v  Solve for angle, θ
Launch location:	Projectiles are launched horizontally from an elevated height (e.g., driving off a cliff)  Projectiles are launched from and land on a flat surface (e.g., throwing a ball)  Projectiles are launched upward at an angle from an elevated height (e.g., the roof of a building)
Simplify gravity:	Use ag = 10 m/s2 for acceleration due to gravity
