Parametric equations finding distance and height of a batted baseball, using trigonometric functions. Given the initial velocity of the swing, and the angle at which the ball is hit, watch the ball travel towards an outfield fence. You can change these to see what happens. You can adjust the height and distance of the fence. Make sure when you change the angle leave the degree symbol. To start the program make sure you start with 0.
