5. In order to complete traverse computations, which of following steps is to be carried out first?


6. In which method magnetic bearings of traverse lines are measured by a odolite fitted with a compass?


7. Chain and compass traversing is also called a fast needle method.


8. Calculate correction for departure of BC, using Bowditch’s rule.

Line Length (m) Consecutive co-ordinates
Latitude Departure
AB 121.87 +225.87 -228.92
BC 199.85 -268.25 +326.62
CA 245.57 +43.31 -98.69


9. In transversing by direct observation of angles, magnetic bearing of any one line can also be measured if required.


10. In a closed transverse, sum of interior angles should be equal to (2N – 4) right angles. Orwise, error occurred termed as ____
