Solve this:

Example 6 Collision at an
Intersection

Consider the collision depicted in figure to be between two
billiard balls with equal masses m1 = m2 The
first ball is called the cue while the second ball is called the
target The billiard player wants to sink the target ball in a
corner pocket, which is at an angle θ 2   =   37
° Assume that the collision is elastic and that friction and
rotational motion are not important Obtain θ 1 [NCERT]
