That's wrong

It's just 52 x 8"

Find out how to work out area

you dont understand the math because you dont understand how 8 inches per mile squared was calculated in the first place

52 miles does not = 52 miles squared

That's length vs area

And they are not the same

search up how to the rate of curvatue was calculated

and coem back to me

http://embracetheball.blogspot.com/2016/12/eight-inches-per-mile-squared.html?m=1

7.98 inches per mile squared.

Now what

That website is garbage

multiply that by 52

Go ahead

8 inches per mile works just fine at shorter distances

What's the equation using that factor

52 x 52 x 8 / 12

52 x 52 x 7.98 / 12

In variable form, what is it?

What is that 12 for

To get inches to feet

Oh ok cool

So what is the equation in variable form

I dont know but it doesnt work in reality

Why 52 x 52

It doesn't mean squared like that

It means m^2 not (m)^2

Cuz that's how its done

Square the distance

We need an equation to test

1 mile

1x1x8÷12

2 miles
2x2x8÷12

And so on

That makes the curvature an exponential and that's not how a sphere or near shpere works

Yes it is

Wtf are you sayinh

The curtvature can't work as an exponential
