Answer 1

The view of the earth's surface as seen from a height is circular.

Explanation:

When you observe the Earth's surface from a height, like from a plane or a tall building, the horizon appears to be circular. This is because the Earth is spherical in shape, and as you rise in altitude, the visible horizon becomes wider, but the shape of it remains a circle. If the Earth were flat, the horizon would appear as a straight line regardless of altitude.
