Question

1. A line is measured on a windy day as 338.65 m. The same line measured 338.37 m on a calm day. If the latter measurement is given four times the reliability of the first, determine the most probable value of the measured line 2. In this problem the weight an angle is assumed to be proportional to the number of times it has been measured by repetition. Five angles in a pentagon were measured with the of following results: 134°44’35’’, 167°02'05'’, 86°15’20’’, 75°48’50’’, and 76°08’50’’. If the number of repetitions for each measurement and were 2, 6, 6, 8, and 4, respectively, determine the adjusted values of the angles.
