Finding the angular diameter of a planet is a trivial task once we have found the distance to the planet, which we have found here. mybloggingplanet.com/2014/12/promote-your-blog-post.html?showcomment=1419174717558
The only thing else we need is the angular diameter at 1AU, and then applying the formula,
angular diameter = angular diameter at 1AU / distance
we get the value we are looking for.
public static double CalcPlanetDiam(double fDistance, double fAngDiam1AU)
{
return (fAngDiam1AU / fDistance);
}
