when a body is thrown at an angle in a projectile motion, the vertical component of the velocity is vcos(B) ..where v is the velocity at which the body is thrown and B represents the angle at which it is thrown.Similarly horizontal component is vsin(B). these components are useful in determining the range of the projectile ,the maximum height reached,time of ascent,time of descent etc.,
