Angular distance: Measurement, Overview & Celestial coordinates

Angular distance or angular separation is the measure of the angle between the orientation of two straight lines, rays, or vectors – typically in three-dimensional space – or the central angle subtended by the radii through two points on a sphere. When the rays are lines of sight from an observer to two points in space, it is known as the apparent…
