Measurements of a binary star system are required to determine what property of the stars?
Luminosity
How can stellar masses be determined by observing binary star systems?
Stellar masses can be determined by observing binary star-systems. The calculations of the orbits of the binary stars allow the masses of their component stars to be directly determined, which in turn allows other stellar parameters, such as radius and density, to be indirectly estimated.
What property of a star can be determined from its color?
temperature
Which property of a star can be determined by its color?
temperature

Is a star system containing two stars called a binary star?
Yes. No, it is called a binary system.
Color of binary star?

How can stellar masses be determined by observing binary star systems?
Stellar masses can be determined by observing binary star-systems. The calculations of the orbits of the binary stars allow the masses of their component stars to be directly determined, which in turn allows other stellar parameters, such as radius and density, to be indirectly estimated.
What is the solar mass of a binary star?
A binary star is simply a system containing two stars, which does not say anything about the system's mass.
