Hiii I'm also Tiwari solution: ¤(angle) =1°54' Therefore we have to change it into radian 1°=60'(min) , therefore given angle =60'+54'=114' 1min=60" sec Hence 114×60=6840"(second) 1"(sec) =4.85*10^-6 6840*4.85*10^-6 =3.32*10^-2 We have formula of this: Angel=arc/distance And we have to find d Therefore D=1.27*10^7 (given in question) /3.32*10^-2(Find above) Therefore the distance =3.84*10^8
