Question
Shows that the projection angle $\theta_0$ for a projectile launched from the origin is given by,
$\theta_0=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{4\text{h}_\text{m}}{\text{R}}\Big)$
where the symbols have their usual meaning.

Answer

Maximum vertical height, $\text{h}_\text{m}=\frac{\text{u}_0^2\sin^2\theta}{2\text{g}}\ ...(\text{i})$
Horizontal range, $\text{R}=\frac{\text{u}_0^2\sin^22\theta}{\text{g}}\ ...(\text{ii})$
$\frac{\text{h}_\text{m}}{\text{R}}=\frac{\sin^2\theta}{2\sin^22\theta}$
$=\frac{\sin\theta\times\sin\theta}{2\times\sin\theta\cos\theta}$
$=\frac{\sin\theta}{4\cos\theta}=\frac{\tan\theta}{4}$
$\tan\theta=\frac{4\text{h}_\text{m}}{\text{R}}$
$\theta=\tan^{-1}\frac{4\text{h}_\text{m}}{\text{R}}$
