Answer to Problem 5CYU
X isnot a line in the spherical geometry
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Formula used:
Great
In order to find X on the given figure is a line in the spherical geometry it must be a great circle. That is it must passes through the poles of the sphere. In the given figure X does not pass through the poles.
