Assignment 1: Angles and Traverse

Please submit the written calculation assignment. The submission due date is 7 Oct 2019.

1. Convert the azimuths from north to bearings, and compute the interior angles, smaller
than 180° between successive azimuths.
72°44’ 25”, 140° 25’ 18”, 224° 58’ 47” and 347° 04’ 46”
2. Convert the bearings to azimuths from north and compute the interior angle, smaller than
180°, between successive bearings.
N 34° 48’ 22” E, S 38° 35’ 14” E, S 65° 26’ 56” W, N 58° 21’ 04” W
3. Course AB of a five-sided traverse runs due north. From the given balanced interior
angles to the right, compute and tabulate the bearings and azimuths from north for each
side of the traverses.
A= 84° 56’ 22”, B= 112° 23’ 50", C= 121° 35’ 04”, D= 113° 23’ 05”, E= 107° 41’ 39”
4. Compute and tabulate the azimuths of the sides of a regular hexagon (polygon with six
equal angles), given the starting direction of side AB.
a. Bearing of AB = N 48°36’ 38” W (Station C is westerly from B)
b. Azimuth DE = 116°10′20′′.
5. Balance the following interior angles-to-the-right for a polygon traverse to the nearest 1′′.
Compute the azimuths assuming a fixed azimuth of 268°45’ 15” for line AB. A= 119°
14’ 32”, B = 104° 17’ 43”, C = 106° 41’ 07”, D = 131° 09’ 54”, E = 78° 36’ 51” (Note:
Line BC bears SW.)
6. Determine departures and latitudes, linear misclosure, and relative precision for the
traverse in Problem 5 if lengths of the sides (in meters) are as follows: AB= 223.011;
BC= 168.818; CD = 182.358; DE = 229.024; and EA = 207.930.
7. Using the compass (Bowditch) rule adjust the departures and latitudes of the traverse in
Problem 6. If the coordinates of station A are X = 310,630.892 m and Y = 121,311.411
m, calculate (a) coordinates for the other stations and, from them, (b) the lengths and
bearings of lines CA and BD, and (c) the final adjusted angles at B and D.
