What is the hour angle of a star crossing your meridian?
o hours
What is the angle between two arms of a star?
Stars do not have arms.
Where would you find a acute angle?
3 names of where you would find an acute angle is: Triangle, cone and a star.
What do you use to measure the angle of a star?
The device that astronomers use to find the angle between the horizon and stars in the sky is called a sextant.
How many angles does a right angle have?
A right angle only has one angle.
How many acute angles are in a 5 pointed star?
the answer is 5 each tip of the star is a acute angle and each angle on the inside of the star is an obtuse angle. there are 5 obtuse angles and no right angles.
How many obtuse angle in a star?
A regular star with n points has 2 interior angles of which n are acute and n are reflex.
What is the angle between the star Aldebaran and the earth?
Between two points - like a star and Earth - you would have a line, not an angle. Angles may be indicated between two stars - that is, the angle would be star 1 - Earth - star 2.
You can measuring the altitude of a star by measuring the angle between your horizon and the star using a?
We would typically use a sextant to measure the angle of a star above the horizon.
How can you determine your latitude in the northern hemisphere just by using a star?
To determine your latitude in the northern hemisphere using a star, measure the angle between the horizon and the star using a sextant. This angle is called the star's altitude. If you know the star's declination (which is constant), subtract it from 90 degrees minus the star's altitude to find your latitude.
How many degrees are there in each angle of a star?
It depends on if it is a 5 point, 6 point, or some other.
What is an 18 point 3d star shape called?
star angle prism
How many obtuse angles are in a star?
Oh, what a happy little question! In a star shape, each point creates an angle. If we connect those points, we can see that each angle is less than 90 degrees, so there are no obtuse angles in a star. Just think of all those lovely acute angles coming together to make a beautiful star!
What instrument is used to measure a the angle of a star?
A sextant.
Does the star Sirius or Betelgeuse have a greater parallax angle?
Sirius will have a greater angle, because it is closer to us.
What is the latitude between the horizon and the north star if the angle is 39 degrees?
The answer depends on which angle is 39 degrees.
How did Sailors use the North Star to help Phoenician trade?
Navigators measured the angle of Polaris (North Star) at their home port. To return they sailed until the star was at the angle of home port - then turn left or right and "sail down the latitude," keeping the angle the same all the way.
