Example 1.3: The moon is at a distance of
3.84x108 m from the Earth. If viewed from two
diametrically opposite points on the Earth, the
angle subtended at the moon is 1° 54'. What is
the diameter of the Earth?​

Angle subtended

⊖=1° 54'=114

=114 \times 2.91 \times \: {10}^{ - 4} rad \\  = 3.317 \times {10}^{ - 2} rad

Diameter of the Earth =⊖ x Distance to the moon from the earth

 = 3.317  \times {10}^{ - 2}  \times 3.84 \times   {10}^{8}m \\  = 1.274 \times  {10}^{7}

hope it will be right answer
