It was calculated that a shell when fired from a gun with a certain velocity and at an angle of elevation 5π/36 rad should strike a given target in the same horizontal plane. In actual practice, it was found that a hill just prevented the trajectory. At what angle of elevation should the gun be fired to hit the target.
