An object is launched at speed v0v_0v0​ up a hill sloped at 30∘30^{\circ}30∘ relative to the horizontal. The launch angle θ\thetaθ (relative to the horizontal) that maximizes the range along the slope is given by the formula θ=45∘+α2\theta = 45^{\circ} + \frac{\alpha}{2}θ=45∘+2α​, where α\alphaα is the slope angle of the hill. What is this optimal launch angle in degrees?
