To check whether the given postulate of plane Euclidean Geometry has a corresponding statement in Spherical Geometry

Answer to Problem 8CYU
There doesn’t exist a corresponding statement in Spherical Geometry for the given statement.
Explanation of Solution
Given information: Perpendicular lines intersect at one point.
Formula used:
Great circle: A plane can intersect a sphere in a point or in a circle. If the circle contains the center of the sphere, the intersection is called a great circle.
As two great
That is, intersection of greater circles do not possess perpendicular angles.
Therefore, there doesn’t exist a corresponding statement for the given statement, “perpendicular lines intersect at one point” in spherical geometry

- 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
