This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Rme= distance of moon from earth

Rse=distance of sun from earth

Let angle made by sun and moon is .

θ=AsunRse2=AmoonRme2

θ=πRs2Rse2=πRm2Rme2

RsRse )2 = ( RmRme )2

RsRm )= ( RseRme )

Hence radius of sun and moon represents their sizes respectively.
