This problem requires a little bit of imagination. Look at the question carefully it says the projectile was thrown horizontally , so the next think comes to mind if it was thrown horizontally then it would remain in x axis forever creating an angle of zero degree. This seems suspicious! Right? So there must be something we are missing in y axis, what actually happening is the projectile somewhat represents a falling object from the edge of a cliff of a mountain with zero initial velocity in y axis.
tan 3 0 = v x v y
v y = g t
v x = 3 0 remains unchanged in x axis
tan 3 0 = 3 0 g t
∴ t = 3
