8 The length of a survey line was measured with a tape having nominal length 20 m and was found to be 236.4 m. As @ check the length was again measured with 2 30 m tape and was found to 240.5 m. On testing, it was found that the 20 m tape was 6 cm too short. Estimate true length of 30 m tape. Q.14 Ina plan, 2110 cm scale drawn shrunks to 9.7 cm. If the scale of the given plan is written as 1 : 250, determine the actual length of a line which at present shows 10 om.
