A dumpy level with an internal focusing telescope was set up on the left bank of a river and the rod readings tabulated below were taken on a stadia rod held successively at the left and right water edges. If the stadia interval factor of the instrument is 100 and the stadia constant is 0.30m, determine the width of the river. Rod held at LWE: Upper Reading = 2.190 m & Lower Reading = 2.155 m Rod held at RWE: Upper Reading = 2.275 m & Lower Reading = 2.070 m

A line PQ is prolonged to point R by double centering. Two foresight points R′ and R″ are set. What angular error would be introduced in a single plunging based on the following lengths of QR and R′R″, respectively? the lengths are 312.600 m and 42 mm.
A dumpy level is set up at one end of a line 120 m long for the purpose of determining the instrument’s stadia interval factor. The line is marked by hubs at every 30 m and a stadia rod is held at each hub. The stadia intercepts at each location of the rod were observed as follows: 0.308, 0.613, 0.918 and 1.222 meters, respectively. The average value of the instrument’s stadia interval factor is:
In levelling across a wide river on pampanga, a reciprocal level readings were taken between point b and c as shown in tabulation. Compute the difference in elevation between B and C with instrument set up near B.
To determine the horizontal distance between Q and R, a tacheometer was used and was placed at P. The stadia intercepts for Q and R were recorded to be 0.320 m and 0.210 m respectively. Calculate the horizontal distance between Q and R if the angle QPR is equal to 61°30'30". Take stadia multiplication constant as 100 and the stadia addition constant as 0.10 m.
