Asked by Shaila

While Hiking in the wilderness, you come to the top of a cliff that is 60.0m high. you throw a stone from the cliff, giving it an initial velocity of 21m/s at 35deg above the horizontal. How far from the base of the cliff does the stone land? (85m)

I tried this question but i get the answer as 75m. I found the time and there after the horizontal component and multiplied it together. Please help.
