Suppose you, as an astronaut, used Erastothenes' method to determine the circumference of a new planet you visited. You found that when the sun was overhead at noon at point A it was at a 10 degree angle from the vertical at point B. You know points A and B are 800 km apart. What would you get (approximately) for the circumference of that planet?
