Explanation:
Let us consider that the
The vertical component of the velocity =
The horizontal component of the velocity =
Let us also consider that the time of flight of the projectile is T
This T time will be required to return the prrojectile to the ground i.e.after this "T"time net vertical displacement is zero
So we can write
Horizontal displacement = distance from point of projection to the point of landing
