Statement A: 2.567 km, to two significant figures. Statement B: 2.567 km, to three significant figures. Determine the correct relationship between the statements. View Available Hint(s) Determine the correct relationship between the statements. Statement A is greater than Statement B. Statement A is less than Statement B. Statement A is equal to Statement B.

Statement A is greater than Statement B.

Explanation:

Statement A: 2.567 km, to two significant figures..

To 2 sig figures means only 2 whole numbers should be left after approximation. Thus, 2.567 to 2 significant figures is 2.6 km

Statement B: 2.567 km, to three significant figures. To 3 sig figures means only 3 whole numbers should be left after approximation. Thus, 2.567 to 3 significant figures is 2.57 km

Comparing both values, statement A is obviously greater than Statement B

the working equation for the angular size is the product of the physical size and 360 degrees divided by the product of two pi and distance from earth. the minimum size would be 0.559 degrees while the maximum size would be 0.49 degrees.
