During the moon's crescent phases, the earth is at the vertex of an
acute angle formed with the sun and moon.
Another way to look at it is that during the crescent phases, the moon is
always less than 90° away from the sun in our sky. Also, it rises and sets
within 6 hours of the sun.

What type of angle is a 120 degree angle?
A 120 degree angle is an obtuse angle. This means that the angle is between 90 and 180 degrees.
How many seconds longitude are in one degree?
One degree of angle is equal to 3,600 seconds of angle.
What phase of the moon would be visible during the highest spring tide?
Spring Tides occur during two phases, full and new moon. This is because the moon earth and sun are aligned during both of these phases. It is opposite during neap tide, in which the moon and sun meet at a right angle on earth, which means the moon during neap tide is at the first or third (last) quarter phase. Hope this helped! :)
What phases do you see when the moon is at a right angle to side the earth and sun?
full moon
Is Saturn the planet which orbits the sun on its side?
Uranus does at a 98 degree angle. Pluto also is tilted at a 122 degree angle.
What causes the relationship between the Sun Moon and Earth during each lunar phase?
Imagine an angle, with the Earth at the vertex and the sun and moon on the two rays. -- New Moon . . . the angle is zero. -- Crescent phases . . . the angle is acute. -- First Quarter and Third Quarter . . . the angle is 90°. -- Gibbous phases . . . the angle is obtuse. -- Full Moon . . . the angle is 180°.
What angle describe both gibbous phases of waxing and waning?
With the earth at the vertex of the angle, the angle between the sun and moon is between 90 and 180 degrees during the gibbous phases.

What is the supplymentry angle of a 145 degree angle?
The supplementary angle to a 145 degree angle will be a 35 degree angle because 145 + 35 = 180.
