What type of path does Venus and Retrograde and prograde motion have in common?
Venus:  Orbiting within Earth's orbit, Venus is an inferior planet and never appears to venture far from the Sun; its maximum angular distance from the Sun (elongation) is 47.8°. Retrograde and prograde motion:  This "motion" can be the orbit of one body about another body or about some other point, or the rotation of a single body about its axis, or other phenomena such as precession or nutation of the axis.
