Answer:
Pythagorean theorem, eh?
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to do this is use the radius-tangent angle theorem thing...
It states that, a radius that intersects a point of tangency(I think that's what it's called) is perpendicular to the tangent. Thus, CW is perpendicular to OW!
Thus, it forms a right triangle, where we can use Pythagorean Theorem!
If you don't know what it is, check the internet! It's pretty simple.
So, there you go! Hope this helps!

Answer:
77.76 times
Step-by-step explanation:
The average distance of Neptune from the sun
= 4.503 × 10 ⁹ k m .
and Mercury = 5.791 × 10 ⁷ k m .
Hence neptune is ( 4.503 × 10 ⁹) ÷ (5.791 × 10 ⁷ ) times farther from the sun than mercury
i.e.( ) × 10⁹⁻⁷ times
= 0.7776 × 10 ² times
= 77.76 times.
