To determine whether figure p on the mirror ball shown is a line in the spherical geometry.
Answer to Problem 2CYP
Figure p is a line in the spherical geometry
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Formula used:
Great
Figurep goes through the poles of the spheresince it is contained in the great circle.
Therefore, figure pon the mirror ball shown is a line in the spherical geometry.
A line in spherical geometry refers to great circle. That is Figurep is contained in one of the great circle of given sphere.
