Answer:
≈ 33°
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first, you can draw a visual. Refer to the image attached below:
Using this info, you can use trigonometric ratios. Recall that:
tangent = opposite side/adjacent side
sine = opposite side/ hypotenuse
cosine = adjacent side/hypotenuse
You can clearly see that you have an opposite side and a given hypotenuse. This means we'll be using sine.
So:
However, we're not trying to find sinX, we're trying to find X.
So we would have to use inverse sine, which would then be:
Put this into your calculator, and:
X ≈ 33.05573115...
Consider the attached ellipse. Let the sun be at the right focus. Then perihelion is at right vertex on the x-axis and aphelion is at the left vertex on the x-axis.
The distances:
- from perihelion to the sun in terms of ellipse is a-c;
- from aphelion to the sun in terms of ellipse is a+c.
Then
Add these two equations:
and subtract first equation from the second:
Note that thus
The equation for the planet's orbit is
