Problem 4. Point A is in between points B and C, the distances of B and C from B and C from point A are 1000m and 2000m respectively measured from point A. The angle of elevation of point B is 18°13' while that of C as Ø. The difference in the elevation of B and C is 44.4m. Considering the effects of curvature and refraction, what is the value of Ø? (Note: Assume that point C is higher) where: Earth's Curvature and Atmospheric Refraction Correction (Her): Her(m) = 0.067 K² K (km) = level distance Her K Vertical line Horizontal line Level line

A stadia measurement was undertaken with a theodolite having an internal focusing telescope and stadia interval factor of 98.8. When a backsight was taken on a turning point whose elevation is 205.62 m, the rod interval observed was 1.94 m; and with the horizontal hairs set at 1.50 m on the rod, the vertical angle reading was -13 degree 45’. For a foresight to a control point, the rod intercept was 1.17 m; and with the horizontal hair reading of 1.60 m on the rod, the vertical angle observed was +7 degree 18’. Determine the elevation of the line of sight at the instrument point and the elevation of the point on which the foresight was taken.
