to prove this qusetion requires simple vector addition.

just imagine that at any instant the net velocity of the projectile is the superposition of two velocities:

1. the projection velocity u inclined at θ to the horizontal.

2. a vertically downward veloctiy equal to gt which a freely falling body would acquire when it has fallen for time t.

the angle between these vectors equals 90° + θ.

so the net velocity at any time comes out to be v = {u2 + g2t2 - 2ugtsinθ}(1/2).
