Ariel orbits at exactly half the distance that the Moon does. Yet it's smaller. Still, if you were to find yourself in its shadow as shown here >>16129675 you'd see it "perfectly" matching the sun. As long as you are in the umbra it's a total eclipse from your vantage point (in the umbra). it wouldn't look larger than the sun, it would look just like our Moon looks, "perfectly" covering the sun.
