can anyone help with this physics problem?

On February 6, 1971, Alan Shepard made history by becoming the first astronaut to play golf on the Moon. Using only one hand to swing the club because of his bulky space suit, Shepard still managed a long drive. Given the lack of an atmosphere on the moon and a gravitational acceleration of 1.6 m/s2, how far would the shot go with an initial velocity of 25 m/s and a launch angle of 35°?

On the famous 18th hole at Pebble Beach, Lionel Forrest stands next to his ball on the fairway, 165 meters from the hole. His caddie hands him a golf club that will hit the ball at a 65° angle. The gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s2, and a stiff tailwind exactly cancels the effects of air resistance. How hard should Lionel hit the ball to land it as close to the hole as possible?
