Why am i getting negative numbers?

%Set Values
g = 9.8; %m/s^2
v = [10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20]; %m/s
theta = [0, 0, 50, 60, 70, 80]; %degress
%Set Equation
h= v.^2.*sin(theta)./2.*g;
%Make the table
T = array2table(h);
disp (T)
this is supposed to be the height of a ball so I don't think that I should be getting negative numbers.

The sin() function takes input in radians. Use sind() for input arguments in degrees.

Thanks! I forgot that I had to put d for degrees.
