uncurved
Lacking any arc
Uncurved means lacking a curve—straight or flat rather than bent or rounded.
The word appears most often in technical or descriptive contexts: an uncurved line, the uncurved edge of the blade.
It can also describe trajectories or surfaces that remain linear when curvature might be expected.
