4. One way of doing that is to determine the length of the arc along a chosen longitude or meridian at one-degree latitude separation.
5. While it was generally known that the earth was not a sphere but an ‘oblate spheroid’, more curved at the equator and flatter at the poles, the question of ‘how much more’ way yet to be established.
