    How much (Maths) are you familiar with?
    You can simply resolve the problem into x and y coordinates.... i.e. in terms of vectors .. i && j.
    Then, the best and accurate way is to use calculus (just the basic matters..btw)...

    I have done a fair bit of maths - A-level and now a little in Uni. This is mainly integration, optimization, differentiation, logic and a bit of matrix algebra though; I've never applied my mathematical knowledge to something like this.

    I'm guessing that the use of vectors in this situation would involve matrix algebra? The last time I took a peek at vectors was roughly two years ago!

    [P.s. Thanks for the quick reply ]
