Analysis

Calculate the Total Average Distance. Record in Table 2.2.
(Total Average Distance = Distance from Edge of Paper + Horizontal Distance to paper
edge)

Calculate the percent difference between the predicted value and the resulting average
distance when shot at an angle.

Estimate the precision of the predicted range. How many of the final 10 shots landed
within this range?
