  1. The formula for distance along a circle = 2 * pie * radius

    maybe you can use this formula. Anyway goodluck for your ten pts.


  2. You need to know the radius of the sphere and the angle between the two points.

    The formula for the distance between them is the angle (measured in radians) multiplied by the radius.

  3. x = 2rd(pi) / 360

    x is the distance

    r is the radius of the sphere or circle

    d is the angle traveled in degrees

    This is not a geography question.
