Use the small angle approximation to calculate the angular size of Venus, in arcseconds at both its closest approach to Earth and its most distant.
Venus diameter = 1.2x104 km
Closest approach: Distance = 4.47x10 km
Furthest approach: Distance = 1.94x108 km
How did Galileo's observations of the changing angular size of Venus help prove the heliocentric
model of the Solar System?
Note 1 radian = 206265 arcseconds

Desmond wants to sell his car that he paid $8,000 for 2 years ago. the car depreciated, or decreased in value, at a constant rate each month over a 2-year period. if x represents the monthly depreciation amount, which expression shows how much desmond can sell his car for today? 8,000 + 24x 8,000 - 24x 8,000 + 2x 8,000 - 2xdesmond wants to sell his car that he paid $8,000 for 2 years ago. the car depreciated, or decreased in value, at a constant rate each month over a 2-year period. if x represents the monthly depreciation amount, which expression shows how much desmond can sell his car for today? 8,000 + 24x 8,000 - 24x 8,000 + 2x 8,000 - 2x
