Question
a) a closed traverse survey involved measurements of angels (using theodolite) and distances between 3
stations A, B, C, from the data given in the table below, determine and correct the closing errors in angular
measurements and in northing and easting (of the sides), and hence determine the corrected values of
stations coordinates, where azimuth of AB 90° and coordinates of (A) are (500 N, 500 E). Finally, compute
the traverse area from its coordinates.
