Eratosthenes determined the circumference of Earth by conducting an experiment. Put his steps in order as they correlate to the scientific method?

Make observations: Eratosthenes observed that the sun cast shadows at different angles in different locations. Formulate a hypothesis: He hypothesized that the Earth was spherical and that he could calculate its circumference using the angle of the sun's shadows. Test the hypothesis: He measured the angle of the shadow in Alexandria and used this to calculate the circumference of the Earth. Analyze the results: By comparing his calculated circumference to the actual distance between Alexandria and Syene, he was able to estimate the Earth's circumference with remarkable accuracy.

Explain what helps determine a good hypothesis?

A good hypothesis is determined by: Use of what you learned and what you know to infer the happenings. Also, if you have good reason to your inferences. Try to put at least 3 or 4 good reasons in.
