A rock is projected from the edge of the top of a building with an initial velocity of 12.2 m/s at an angle of 53° below the horizontal. The rock strikes the ground a horizontal distance of 25 m from the base of the building. Assume that the ground is level and that the side of the building is vertical. How tall is the building?
