Here we calculate goal angles for set shots taken directly in front of goal at different distances.

From (4), the goal angles for shots taken from directly in front of goal at distances of 30 m, 40 m, and 50 m, are respectively [theta] = 12.177[degrees], [theta] = 9.148[degrees], and [theta] = 7.324[degrees].
