1. Given the latitude and departure of a closed traverse, determine the area by Analytic
Method (Coordinate method).
line latitude departure
AB -37.52 -4.55
BC +0.44 -20.0
CD +8.45 -18.13
DE +22.55 +8.21
EA +6.08 +34.47
Solution:
Solving for coordinates:
At A: x= 8.21+34.47 =42.68
Y =31.44 +6.08 =37.52
At B ; x =18.13 + 20 =38.13
Y=0
At C: x =dep CD =18.13
Y= lat. BC = 0.44
At D x=0
Y = 0.44 + 8.45 =8.89
At E; x = dep DE =8.21
Y=8.89 + 22.55 = 31.44
