This is a Desmos project which calculates the two possible angles at which to fire a projectile with a given muzzle speed to hit a specified target at (x,y). The project also displays the range envelope for the given muzzle speed where solutions exist.
You can move the target around in the window and the calculator will update the output angles ⍺ and β (given in degrees of elevation) in the left column. You can also adjust the muzzle speed using the provided slider and the range envelope and firing angles will be recalculated.
