The idea is to find a triangle with the star at one vertex and with a base as large as possible. To do this, the star is observed at two different times exactly 6 months apart, and its apparent change in position is recorded. From these two observations E1SE2 can be calculated. The times are chosen so that E1SE2 is as large as possible, which guarantees that E1OS is 90. The angle E1SO is called the parallax of the star. Alpha Centauri, the star nearest the earth, has a parallax of 0.000211. Estimate the distance to this star. Take the distance from the earth to the sun to be 9.3107 miarrow_forward
- Height of a Mountain To calculate the height h of a mountain, angles and and distance d are measured, as shown in the figure below. a Show that h=dcotcot b Show that h=dsinsinsin() c Use the formulas from parts a and b to find the height of a mountain if =25, =29 and d=800 ft. Do you get the same answer from each formula?arrow_forwardDistances to Venus The elongation of a planet is the angle formed by the planet, earth, and sun see the figure. It is known that the distance from the sun to Venus is 0.723 AU see Exercise 71 in Section 5.2. At a certain time the elongation of Venus is found to be 39.4. Find the possible distances from the earth to Venus at that time in astronomical units AU.arrow_forwardSimilar Triangles and Trigonometric Functions Use the figure below. (a) Explain why ABC,ADE, and AFG are similar triangles. (b) What does similarity imply about the ratios BCAB,DEAD,andFGAF? (c) Does the value of sinA depend on which triangle from part a is used to calculate it? Does the value of sinA change when you use a different right triangle similar to the three given triangles? (d) Do your conclusions from part c apply to the other five trigonometric functions? Explain.arrow_forward
