Is the earth a cube or sphere?
A long time ago- around Christopher Columbus's time- people use to think that the Earth was a cube. Scientists now know that the Earth is a sphere. There is also evidence that it is if you don't believe that - but i highly doubt that. Astronauts that have landed on the moon have seen the Earth and have taken photographs of the Earth. They show that the Earth is a sphere. All the planets that the scientists have discovered so far have all been spheres.
Can the Pythagorean theorem be used to find someones location on earth?

Which sphere are humans part of?
Where the Earth is concerned, humans live in the 'biosphere', together with all other living matter. Overlapping the biosphere, are the hydrosphere, and the atmosphere, and below us , inside the Earth, is the lithosphere. Above the atmosphere is the stratosphere, and then the ionosphere. NB All theses 'spheres' overlap to some extent.
