You actually don't understand trigonometry? What a maroon.
If you measure two angles and one side of a triangle, it's easy to calculate the other angle and sides. That's how surveyors measure long distances with a transit.
Triangulation only works on a flat earth. You can't get an angle from a curved surface, genius. Everything you measure with angles is flaaaaaaaat and straight lines. There is no curving lines in an angle, let alone a triangle. You're a moron.
Look at how a sextant is used for celestial navigation. It's an angling measure device. You keep it parallel to the horizon because it's flat and that is your baseline.
You are hopeless. Perhaps you can go to community college and study geometry and trigonometry.
It doesn't matter what shape the surface you're standing on is, whether flat or curved. What matters is your line of sight to another point that you can pull a straight chain to. Then measure the angles at each end to the unknown distant point and you can calculate the distance to that point.
Do you think it's impossible to survey property that's hilly?
Can you even dress yourself?
Can you fold your tinfoil hat, or do you just scrunch it up like a Hershey Kiss wrapper? I think you're incapable of being anything but a scruncher.

So how many straight lines does it take to make a sphere? You obviously aren't comprehending basic geometry.
Spherical trigonometry does use straight lines, stupid. You don't understand line of sight either.
Just stay stupid. I won't try to educate you any more.
