A piece of land has two straight sides AB and BC and two irregular sides CD and DA. The distance from A to B =146m and from B to C=154m. The straight distance from the point D to the point A is 180m. The distance from A to C =200m.The offsets from CD and DA to the irregular boundaries as in the tables below. Calculate the area within the boundary. Simpson's rule should be applied wherever it is applicable.

Question
A piece of land has two straight sides
AB and BC and two irregular sides
CD and DA. The distance from A to B
=146m and from B to C=154m. The
straight distance from the point D to
the point A is 180m. The distance
from A to C =200m.The offsets from
CD and DA to the irregular
boundaries as in the tables below.
Calculate the area within the
boundary. Simpson's rule should be
applied wherever it is applicable. *
Line CD (all offsets' outwards)
Line DA (all offsets' inwards)
Distance from point C in (m)
Offset (m)
Distance from point D in (m)
