Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question. -A projectile is launched from the ground with an initial velocity of v0\mathrm { v } _ { 0 } feet per second at an angle of θ∘\theta ^ { \circ } above the horizontal. Write parametric equations in terms of v0v _ { 0 } and θ\theta that model the flight of the projectile. Explain how you would use these equations, for given values of v0v _ { 0 } and θ\theta , to determine the horizontal distance traveled by the projectile.
