What else can I help you with?
What is this called during these moon phases the amount of the lighted side that can be seen begins to increase?
The phase you are referring to is called "waxing," where the amount of the lighted side of the moon that can be seen increases as the moon moves from new moon to full moon.
The different shapes of the moon seen from earth are called?
The different shapes of the moon seen from Earth are called lunar phases. These phases include new moon, first quarter, full moon, and last quarter, which result from the changing positions of the moon, Earth, and the sun.
What do you call changing views of the moon as seen from earth?
The changing views of the moon as seen from Earth are called moon phases. These phases result from the relative positions of the sun, Earth, and moon, causing different portions of the moon to be illuminated.
What is it called when the moon is visible during the day?
When the moon is visible during the day, it is called a "day moon." This occurrence happens because of the moon's position in its orbit around Earth where it can be seen from Earth in daylight hours.

What is the angular diameter of Earth as seen from the moon?
Since Earth has about 4 times the diameter of the Moon, the angular diameter of Earth, as seen from the Moon, is about 4 times larger than the angular diameter of the Moon, as seen from Earth. Since the Moon's angular diameter as seen from here is about half a degree, that would make Earth's angular diameter about 2 degrees.If you wish, you can look up more exact figures and do more precise calculations, but it is hardly worth the trouble, since there is some variation in the distance from Earth to Moon anyway.
