    The document contains three problems involving calculating statistics from measurement data: 1) A quadrilateral's interior angles are given and the most probable value of each angle needs to be determined. 2) A quantity was measured 10 times and the probable error of the mean and relative precision of the mean need to be calculated. 3) Students measured a distance between two points in groups of 4, resulting in 10 measurements, and the relative precision of a single measurement and of the mean need to be found.

    The interior angles of a quadrilateral were observed to be : A = 100° 35’ 40”, B

    = 118° 44’ 15”, C = 80° 54’ 35”, and D = 59° 45’ 50”. Determine the most
    probable value of each of these angles.

    2. A quantity was measured ten times with the following results: 34.630, 34.626,
    34.634, 34.628, 34.629, 34.626, 34.627, 34.633, 34.625, and 34.624 meters.
    Determine the probable error of the mean and relative precision of the mean.

    3. A surveying instructor sent all the 40 students in his class out to measure a
    distance between two points marked on a runway. The students working in groups
    of four came up with ten different measurements as follows: 920.45, 921.05,
    921.65, 920.25, 920.15, 921.85, 921.95, 920.45, 921.15, and 921.35 meters.
    Assuming these values are equally reliable and that variations result only from
    accidental errors, determine the relative precision of a single measurement and the
    relative precision of the mean.
