Explain and compare Euclidean and spherical geometries.

Answer to Problem 24HP
Euclidean geometry is based on working on a flat plane surface where as spherical geometry is based on working on a curved surface.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
It is given in the question that the explanation must contain the planes and lines in both geometries.
Since, Euclidean geometry is based on working on a flat plane surface where as spherical geometry is based on working on a curved surface. A line in Euclidean geometry extends indefinitely in two direction where in spherical geometry, a line is a

- Can someone help me with this please?arrow_forwardMariela is in her classroom and looking out of a window at a tree, which is 20 feet away. Mariela’s line of sight to the top of the tree creates a 42° angle of elevation, and her line of sight to the base of the tree creates a 31° angle of depression. What is the height of the tree, rounded to the nearest foot? Be sure to show your work to explain how you got your answer.arrow_forward1arrow_forward
