Put a flat earthier into space

It would help if you are telling me something that is pertinent to the Earth being what you believe it is or at least tell me why I'm supposed to be arguing for a circle a tangent and a normal for a centred line.

So what exactly are you getting at?

I've told you, I'm not trying to make any point yet, I'm just asking whether you understand and acknowledge these mathematical concepts.
 

For some one with do much to say most mornings, a simple yes or no is proving very difficult, almost as if he can see his argument falling apart if he does

The diagram he showed you🤷‍♂️

What about it?
What is the point of it?

There must be a further point to it all.
Is he asking if the Earth is a circle and this is how he can prove it or is he just trying to tell me how you can somehow find a 90 degree angle on a circle which somehow guarantees a line through a centre.
Tell me about it.

Simple question you dont want to answer because you suspect it's a trap.

A trap for what?

He simply showed a diagram with some very basic mathematical concept and wanted to know if you accepted it, as you do seem to reject a lot of good science and accept a lot of nonsense. It's a yes or no answer and you dont want to commit, which is telling. Funny, but telling.

Whatever is telling to you or funny is all fine with me.
The situation still stands out. What is the point being made?

I see someone trying to tell me they can find a normal in a circle by drawing a line at 90 degrees to the tangent.

Regardless of whether I agree with it or not...what is the point of it?

The point is very simple

do you agree with that mathematical diagram?

what comes after is irrelevant at present

Because the debate to a large part comes gown to geometry, so it's establishing the basic concepts are agreed or not

What comes after is very relevant, so let's see the point being made.
Do you know it?
Does anyone know it?

Comes down to geometry for what?
For a diagram or for a supposed globe and stars and what not?

What is the point?
