Euclidean space
Any conformal map from Euclidean space of dimension at least 3 to itself is a composition of a homothetic transformation and an isometry.

In two-dimensional Euclidean space, expressing vector AB as a free vector in Cartesian space equal to (x1,y1) and AC as (x2,y2), this can be rewritten as:
Applying trigonometry to find the altitude h.

Quad tesseral addressing is an alternative method of defining points in two-dimensional Euclidean space which has some significant advantages over the Cartesian approach.
When the two curves are embedded in a metric space other than Euclidean space, such as a polyhedral terrain or some Euclidean space with obstacles, ...
The simplest viewshed calculations suppose that light moves in straight lines in a Euclidean space (the earth is not curved and no refraction occurs). This is a good approximation for distances of several kilometers or miles.
A sphere is defined as the set of all points in three-dimensional Euclidean space that are located at a distance (the "radius") from a given point (the "center").
