Answer:

zenith distance = 39 degree

Explanation:

given data

declination of star =  -13.00º

latitude = 26.00º N

to find out

distance in degrees between the star and zenith

solution

we know the formula  that is  

latitude = star declination+ its zenith distance     ....................1

and

zenith distance = latitude - star declination

zenith distance = 26 - ( -13 )

zenith distance = 26 + 13

zenith distance = 39 degree

Geologists can determine the actual age of features on a planet by:_____.
adelina 88 [10]

Geologists can determine the actual age of features on a planet by the radiometric dating method in which the age of the rocks is calculated by the natural decay of the radioactive isotopes of elements such as carbon.

In the radiometric dating method, the radioactive minerals in rocks are used. The radioactive isotopes, which are the chemical elements, naturally break down and decay to form a new isotope.

Each radioactive element has a unique decay rate which is known. Hence, the radioactive isotopes are crucial for the geologist to compare and identify the age of the rocks and furthermore, the planet.
