For which pair of angles, where ranges for a projectile are equal. (Initial velocity is kept constant)

Answer: 10°, 80°
Explanation

For projectile motion, two complementary angles θ and 90° - θ give the same range if the initial velocity is constant.

Since 10° + 80° = 90°, the angles 10° and 80° are complementary and will have equal ranges.
