This isnt exactly hw so u can answer it freely, just out of curiosity, more like.

well, i've read about parallax and what it is and how we can calculate ditances of far-off bodies with it, i just wished sum1 cud tell me the equations with which u can calculate the distance of the body with it. thx.

I could be wrong, but isn`t it similar if not the same as those used in Triangulation?

I would concur, simple trigonometry should be sufficient to provide you with the tools to get the answers you seek.

 

Although I advise against writing your answer using txtspk like in your posting, as you may get a lower grade even with a correct answer.

i dont know but i just cant help typing using txtspk :)

 

anyway i get it now. you could simply use the apparent displacement and theta to calculate the distance! thanx guys.
