amit, since this appears to be a home/school work question, we need for you to attempt to answer the question or explain what problems you are having. It gives us a better idea of how to help you.
Thank you
How to find change in velocity
Think about a curve or arc. What happens to a car going uphill if you don't give it more gas? What happens when the car goes downhill? What happened and what caused it?
Think of the motion of the projectile separated into horizontal and vertical components. At the peak of the arc what is its vertical velocity? Does its horizontal velocity change during flight? Then compare the total velocity at its peak with its initial total velocity.
