  2. Round 1 • Travis Gerritsskis off a 312 foot high ski ramp. If Johnson skis across the ramp for 500 feet before launching into the air, what is the ramp’s angle of elevation?

  3. Round 2 • During the US vs. Canada men’s ice hockey game, Sidney Crosbieaccidentally hit the puck flying over the glass that surrounds the rink. A boy in the tenth row of the crowd caught the puck!
