Analysis

➀

Calculate the Total Average Distance. Record in Table 2.2.
(Total Average Distance = Distance from Edge of Paper + Horizontal Distance to paper
edge)

➁

Calculate the percent difference between the predicted value and the resulting average
distance when shot at an angle.

➂

Estimate the precision of the predicted range. How many of the final 10 shots landed
within this range?
