Problem

A stunt motorcyclist wants to jump onto a shipping container of height 5 m5\,\text{m}. The ramp is located 20 m20\,\text{m} from the container. If the motorcycle leaves the ramp at a speed of 20 m/s20\,\text{m/s}, find the tangent ratio of two possible angles of projection to land exactly on the top edge of the container. Take g=10 m/s2g = 10\,\text{m/s}^{2}.
