PROBLEM 1 

Given the following interior angles (angles-to-the-right) of a five-sided closed
polygon traverse and if the azimuth of side AB is fixed at 74°31'17", determine the adjusted azimuth of line EA.

A =105°13'14"; B = 92°36'06"; C = 67°15'22"; D = 217°24'30"; E = 57°30"38". (Note: line BC bears NW.)

 

PROBLEM 2

Compute the linear misclosure for the traverse of Problem 1 if the lengths of the sides (in feet) are as follows: AB = 2157.34; BC =1722.58;CD =1318.15; DE =1536.06; and EA =1785.58. (Note: Assume units of feet for all distances.)

 

NEEDED ANS:

Using the compass (Bowditch) rule, adjust the departures and latitudes of the traverse in Problem 1 considering the length of Problem 2. If the coordinates of station A are X = 20,000 ft and Y = 15,000 ft, calculate the final adjusted angles at stations C.

(The answer must be in the form of degree, minutes, seconds. Round off the answer to whole number.)
