Homework 1.A GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS: Read Each Problem Carefully. Show All Pertinent Solutions and Final Answers

This document outlines a homework assignment for a surveying course, detailing three problems related to the most probable value of angles, weighted measurements, and the product of errors in measurements. Students are instructed to show all solutions neatly, express intermediate answers with four decimal places, and simplify final answers to two decimal places. The assignment is part of the 2nd term for the academic year 2021-2022.

2ND Term, AY 2021 -2022

HOMEWORK 1.A
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS: Read each problem carefully. Show all pertinent solutions and
solve as NEATLY as possible. Express your intermediate answers with at least FOUR decimal
places and simplify your FINAL answers up to TWO DECIMAL PLACES. BOX your
FINAL ANSWERS.

1. MOST PROBABLE VALUE. Measurement of three horizontal angles about a point P


are: APB = 12°31’50’’, BPC = 37°29’20’’, and CPD = 47°36’30’’. If the measurement of
the single angle APD is 97°37’00’’, determine the most probable values of the angles.

2. WEIGHTED MEASUREMENTS. If is desired to determine the most probable value of an


angle which has been measured at different times by different observers with equal care. The
values observed were as follows: 74°39’45’’ (in two measurements), 74°39’27’’ (in four
measurements), and 74°39’35’’
(in six measurements).

3. PRODUCT OF ERRORS. The two sides of a rectangle lot were measured with certain
estimated probable errors as follows: W = 253.36 ± 0.06 m, and L = 624.15 ± 0.08 m.
Determine the area of the lot and the probable error in the resulting calculation.
