What constellations help us find Polaris?
Ursa major and USA minor
How do you find the altitude of the hypotenuse in a right triangle?
By using Pythagoras' theorem: hypotenuse^2 minus base^2 = altitude^2
How do you find the area of a trianle?
half of base times altitude.
How do you find the altitude of an equalateral triangle?
By using Pythagoras' theorem.
How do you Find the length of an altitude of an equalateral triangle?
By using Pythagoras' theorem.
How to calculate Polaris?
Find your latitude and that is the altitude of Polaris in the sky.
What is the altitude or polaris in utica?
43 degrees because the altitude of polaris is equal to the latitude of utica.
How does the altitude of Polaris change with latitude?
the altitude of polaris is same as the latitude of your location assuming that you are in the northern hemisphere
What is the altitude of Polaris in the northern hemisphere?
The altitude of Polaris in the northern hemisphere is the same as the latitude at that point on Earth. For example, if you are at 40˚N, then the altitude of Polaris would be 40.Hope I answered your question! :)
What is altitude of polaris at equator?
The altitude of Polaris at the equator is 0 degrees. This means that Polaris is directly on the horizon and not visible at all from the equator. Polaris can only be seen in the northern hemisphere at latitudes above 23.5 degrees.
What is the latitude of an observer if the altitude of polaris is 43 degrees?
The latitude of the observer is equal to the altitude of Polaris. Therefore, if the altitude of Polaris is 43 degrees, then the latitude of the observer is 43 degrees.
What is the altitude of Polaris at the equator?
0 Degrees
What is the altitude of polaris at Massena NY?
no
How do you find the angle of the altitude of Polaris?
The angle of the altitude of Polaris is equal to the observer's latitude. However, this is only true if you are in the Northern Hemisphere. For example, at the North Pole it is directly overhead and at the equator it is on the horizon and at 45 degrees North it is 45 degrees above you.
What location will the highest altitude of the star Polaris be observed?
If you are at the North Pole, you'll see the star Polaris near the zenit (altitude almost 90 degrees).
What would be the altitude of Polaris the North star for an observer located at 64oN latitude?
The altitude of polaris for an observer is always the same as your latitude so it would be 64oN
How are the altitude of polaris and latitude of an observer related?
The altitude of Polaris and the latitude of an observer are directly related. The altitude of Polaris in the sky is approximately equal to the observer's latitude in the Northern Hemisphere. The higher the latitude, the higher Polaris will appear in the sky.
