The Small Angle Formula

The small angle formula allows us to relate the size, distance, and angular size of an object. This is especially important in astronomy where objects may appear larger or smaller in the sky simply because they are closer or farther away. Visit my backyard with me as we see several demonstrations of the small angle formula and learn how to use the equation.
