- Many problems in mathematics can be solved using the principles of Euclidian geometry.
You know, he's assuming a Newtonian, you know, Euclidian approach to time and space.
- You know, he's assuming a Newtonian, you know, Euclidian approach to time and space.
- It's an inversion in a way between the geometry, Minkowski geometry and Euclidian geometry.
- And so Euclidian geometry is about various geometric figures on the plane, specifically lines, triangles, circles, things like that.
- Yeah, Euclidian coordinate, you cannot cross the horizon.
- We know that in Euclidian geometry, what the shortest path is, right?

Etymology
Euclidian comes from the Greek mathematician Euclid, who set down the rules of 'flat' geometry using straight lines and angles. So calling a space Euclidian means it follows those simple, 'flat' rules rather than the curved rules of other geometries.
