FIREWORKS A fireworks display is being readied for a celebration FIREWORKS A fireworks display is being readied for a celebration. The designers want to have four fireworks shoot out along parallel trajectories. They decide to place two launchers on a dock and the other two on the roof of a building. To pull off this display, what should the measure of angle 1 be? Problem of the Day
