Mathematics, a Human Endeavor A Textbook for Those Who Think They Don't Like the Subject

Limit of sin(x)/x as x approaches 0 is 1.
/sin(x) and x are measured in [m] or [m/m] (it does not matter)
The sine of x is the half of the chord, the x is the half of the arc.
When x approaches 0, 2x approaches 0 as well.
Limit ot (2sin(x))/(2x) as x approaches 0 is 1.
That means that at infinity the cord and the arc are the same.
(1) At infinity a, b, c are strait lines. a and b are parallel, c is perpendicular to them.
(2) At "finity" a and b intersect in a point O and c is the circle.
The arc of c is perpendicular to a and b.
Then the length of the arc of c is the distance between the rays Oa-> and Ob->.

Hi,
meta-
https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=meta-
...
The third, modern, sense, "higher than, transcending, overarching, dealing with the most fundamental matters of," is due to misinterpretation of metaphysics (q.v.) as "science of that which transcends the physical." This has led to a prodigious erroneous extension in modern usage, with meta- affixed to the names of other sciences and disciplines, especially in the academic jargon of literary criticism: Metalanguage (1936) "a language which supplies terms for the analysis of an 'object' language;" metalinguistics (by 1949); metahistory (1957), metacommunication, etc.

(plane) angle is an acid word
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle
In Euclidean geometry, an angle is the figure formed by two rays, called the sides of the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the vertex of the angle. Angles formed by two rays are also known as plane angles as they lie in the plane that contains the rays.
...
Euclid defines a plane angle as the inclination to each other, in a plane, of two lines that meet each other and do not lie straight with respect to each other. According to the Neoplatonic metaphysician Proclus, an angle must be either a quality, a quantity, or a relationship. The first concept, angle as quality, was used by Eudemus of Rhodes, who regarded an angle as a deviation from a straight line; the second, angle as quantity, by Carpus of Antioch, who regarded it as the interval or space between the intersecting lines; Euclid adopted the third: angle as a relationship.
