¶ Chords
Index Entry
Chords:
“P1 is irrelevant in synergetics because the sphere is not experimentally demonstrable and the tetrahedron is the minimum sphere. Compound curvature starts with the tetrahedron. P1 drops out because chords are more economical than arcs. Chords of an omnidirectional system never add up to 360° around a point. They are always geodesics.”
