Answer;
d1 = 868.42 − 438.85
= 429. 57 𝑚
d2 = 1650.56 − 438.85
= 1211. 71 𝑚
d3 = 438.85 − 273.05
= 165. 80 m
d4 = 438.85 − 69.08
= 369. 77 𝑚
d5 = 3610.14 − 438.85

12. TRIGONOMETRIC LEVELING. Two points, A &B, are 3,134.50 meters apart. From the third point, C,
on the line between A and B, and 1,992.25 meters from A, the measured vertical angle is +35°28’ and that to B is -15°14’.
Determine the difference in elevation between A and B making due allowance for the effects of curvature
and atmospheric refraction.
13. TRIGONOMETRIC LEVELLING. IN PROBLEM 12, AND STILL CONSIDERING THE
EFFECTS OF CURVATURE AND REFRACTION, DETERMINE THE DIFFERENCE IN ELEVATION
BETWEEN THE SAME TWO POINTS IF THE MEASURED VERTICAL ANGLES OF A AND B ARE
INSTEAD +28°30’ AND +6°10’, RESPECTIVELY.
