There is no such thing as a flat section of a curved line.
Show me a mathematical equation that proves a line can be both flat and curved at the same time.

Actually cashie. you need to any part "line are you talking about?There is no such thing as a flat section of a curved line.

what??
What line are you talking about?
Aye lil bruh, nevermind.
What line are you referring to?There is no such thing as a flat section of a curved line.

You can take a string and lay it flat on a basketball and make sure the line is straight and you'd have a straight line of string laying flat on a ball.
That's curved string dummy.
A curved line is not straight but if you were to get a marker place it at the center of the ball, and spin that ball evenly, you will get a straight line on a ball. Now if you were to move it back and forth, the line would be crooked or curved.
Would you like me to cite my source?
And here's the deal all GPS and maps adjusted for the curve (like the ones airline pilots use) all use the great circle or the haversine formula to calculate distances on our planet.
Do you know why there are no working flat earth maps that can calculate distances? It should be easy as fuck all you have to do is find out the ratio between miles/kilometers and say a half inch on the map and measuring distances will take a few seconds to calculate.
But for some strange reason, no one has been able to do this. Maybe it's because of perspective
.
What's the most accurate flat earth map that calculates distance? If I traveling from the US to Japan, what ocean am I crossing? LA to Tokyo is like a straight shot. But what does that flight look like on a flat earth?And here's the deal all GPS and maps adjusted for the curve (like the ones airline pilots use) all use the great circle or the haversine formula to calculate distances on our planet.

Try calculating distances in the Southern Hemisphere with those atrocious maps look how stretched out Australia looks on this piece of shit, because according to those Einstiens Australia is as wide as Africa is long. But for some reason in reality Africa's length is 8,000 while Australia is 2,500 miles wide. But so what, the map is off by only around 5,500 miles.
I just wanted to make you admit you were talking about the horizon.Thank you.

Here are the mathematical equations. Now show us your list of scientists.

We can’t directly observe and subjectively perceive the curvature of the Earth from a position close to the surface. And this matches the expectations in the spherical Earth model.
Flat-Earthers often take the fact we can see the curvature by standing on a beach as ‘evidence’ the curve doesn’t exist. They are, once again, wrong.
Because the Earth is spherical, on a clear day, we can see the distinct horizon line. The distance from us to the horizon depends on our height from the surface. The higher we are from the surface, the farther is the distance to the horizon.
By standing on the shore, the height of our eyes from the surface is probably around 2 m (6.5 ft). As a result, the distance to the horizon is about 5 km (3.1 mi).
A human eye has the ‘cone of visual attention’ of about 55°. To account for variance (and to be generous too) we will make it 65°. With a field of view of 65°, the length of the horizon from left to right is about 5.4 km (3.4 mi).
Because the Earth is spherical, the horizon line is curved. It does not appear curved to our eyes because with the length of5.4 km (3.4 mi), the bulge is only 58 cm (23 in), or only about 0.01 percent of the visible length of the horizon.
Flat-Earthers often confuse ‘practically flat’ with ‘perfectly flat’. We can’t see Earth’s curvature from the Earth surface itself, not because “there’s no curvature”, but because the curvature is too small for us to perceive.’
To directly observe the curvature, we need to go higher, much higher.

If the height of the observer from the surface of the water is 2 m, then we can determine the distance to the horizon:
In Google Calculator: sqrt(2 * (2 * 6371000 + 2))
Assuming a human eye’s field of view is 65°, then the length of the visible horizon = 2 * 5048 m * sin(65 degrees/ 2) = 5425 m
5048 m is the distance to the horizon as determined earlier.
If the length of the horizon is 5048m, then the bulge in the middle is: 6371000 – sqrt(6371000^2 – 0.25 * 5425 ^ 2) = 0.577 m.
Are you really going to show him that equation to a guy who struggles with the concept of what's up and what's down?I just wanted to make you admit you were talking about the horizon.
Here are the mathematical equations. Now show us your list of scientists.

Enough!
You're posting an article saying you can't see the curvature from the beach, but then when a boat goes beyond the horizon that's because it's the curvature.
As your partner in dumb stated:
No matter where I'm standing on a sphere, the horizon is going to arc downward from my position. When observing from sea level, the ocean water arcs downward from my feet. Standing at 6 feet, the horizon 3 miles away from me should appear 6 feet below my feet. It should not be at eye level. And as I ascend upward into the sky, the horizon should descend lower.
And for the refraction headz in the building, again I ask, at 24 miles above the earth, above your "atmosphere", does refraction make the horizon appear parallel to the observer's eyesight?
You heard it here folks!
Thank you.
It's been fun.

I was rebuting what you said, should have used quotes. But yes you can place a straight line on a ball. It's called the great circle.Thank you.

"Great circles are the “straight lines” of spherical geometry. This is a consequence of the properties of a sphere, in which the shortest distances on the surface are great circle routes. Such curves are said to be “intrinsically” straight."

Nice try.
I said "flat line" not "straight line"
But you just said:
Now you are saying a straight line is curved.
Doesn't matter, the point has been made and you sound stupid.
Thank you.
It's been fun.
Dumbass, the article doesn't say you can't see the curvature from the beach. It says you are looking at 0.01 percent of the horizon. Meaning the curvature is too slight for you to perceive it.Enough!

Now, I answered your question, gave you maths just like you asked, now answer mine.
POST A LIST OF ACCREDITED SCIENTISTS THAT SAY THE EARTH IS FLAT.
You said there were plenty of them. Post some.
If someone told you to wrap a string around a ball making sure the string is flat on the ball, what do you think, they mean? Or better yet wrap the measuring tape around your chest making sure it is pressed flat against you. Dues this mean your body is a plane?Nice try.

A mathematical equation that proves a line can be both flat and curved.
y=x^2
Y=x^2 is an equation where you have parts that are straight and parts that are curved. So an equation can be flat and curved at the same time and any part of a curve can be related by a straight line (that's calculus though so I don't want your head to explode)
Straight lines don't exist in nature. You can't find a perfectly flat piece of earth unless you make it.
light behaves both as a particle and a wave. (wave-particle duality)
Lines geometrically are a collection of points. Points are a designation of location. Lines are man made creations to understand a curvy world.
This is all stuff you learn in 5th grade. The equation you might learn in 6-7th unless you were in the slow classes then you probably never saw it.
But even without that. Everything else around you is round your head is round your brain is round. Do you believe we orbit the sun. That's round. how can you assume the earth is a flat thing. And why do you flers assume it's like a plate. Why can't it be a flat square like a triscuit. lol
Stubbornness and decision bias is the only things that keep these flerfs on this shit. It's not mathematical or scientific help they need it's psychological. The road to intellectual growth is accepting you will be wrong from time to time.
Stop ducking.
So the earth is shaped like a parabola??
Thank you.
It's been fun.
Where them scientists at?
What I said is correct, because a straight line is straight in non non euclidean geometry. But you should know this Grad School cafeteria cashier.

You're talking about geodesics, not true straight lines like in Euclidean Geometry.
That doesn't matter though because you said:
Thank you.

Correct, this is why it's call non- euclidean geometry because it deals with 3d spears and on a 3d circle or a sphear a straight line is represented by a great circle. The key is not moving up the two like flat Earfers often do on emergency flight landing where instead of drawing a great circle to represent straight they show horn it with a straight line to fuck it up, then claim the fight doesn't make sense. But after plotting it with the proper great circle method every so called emergency flight that supposed to debunk the globe actually supports our model.

So we'll just consider this a you conceding that every single accredited scientist in the world knows the Earth is a sphere. So regardless of the memes and ridiculous questions you post, the science is clear.
Your flat Earth theory is as valid as saying eclipses are cause by dragons eating the son. lol
