Aangular diameter = tanΘ = 2×fraction numerator r a d i u s space o f space e a r t h over denominator d i a tan c e space b e t w e e space m o o n space a n d space e a r t h end fraction space equals space fraction numerator x over denominator 60 x end fraction space equals space 1 over 60×2
 So Θ = arctan(1/30)
