Rme= distance of moon from earth
Rse=distance of sun from earth

Let angle made by sun and moon is .
( )2 = ( )2
( )= ( )
Hence radius of sun and moon represents their sizes respectively.

It is given that 50 VSD
1MSD = 50/49VSD
1VSD= 49/50MSD
Minimum inaccuracy = 1MSD-1VSD= 1MSD-49/50MSD=1/50 MSD
1MSD= 0.5mm
Minimum inaccuracy = 1/50 0.5mm=0.01mm
