Question

Compute and tabulate for the following closed-polygon traverse: 
(a) preliminary bearings, 
(b) unadjusted departures and latitudes, 
(c) linear misclosure, 
(d) relative precision. (Note: Line BC bears NE.) 
(e) if one side and/or angle is responsible for most of the error of closure, which is it 
likely to be? 
(f) Adjust the traverse using the compass rule. If the coordinates in meters of point A are 
6521.951 E and 7037.072 N, determine the coordinates of all other points. 
(g) Find the length and bearing of line AE.
