Observation 1) Observation of a ½ Moon to determine the relationship ds between the distance to the sun and the distance to the moon or dm dm ds By observing that the diagram above determine the relationship between the half- moon's and the sun's distance to Earth. Note the sun, earth and moon create a right triangle. Use the SOH CAH TOA rules to determine the ratio ds if it is known dm that 0 = 89.853 de grees.
