...axes are measured from the image to be 20 arcmin and 13 arcmin, respectively. Calculate the angle of inclination, theta . Solution The longer axis tells us the true radius of the disc. The angle can then be calculated using Equation 1 equation sequence part 1 theta equals part 2 cosine of super negative one times left parenthesis 13 divided by 20 right parenthesis equals...
