Activity 32 - Omitted Measurement for Adjoining Courses (Case 1)
Given the following data for a closed traverse, compute the length
and bearing of unknown side BC.
Course Bearing Length
AB N23˚13'E 56.45m
BC Unknown Unknown
CD S63˚25'W 62.01m
DA N15˚54'W 46.23m
Solution:
Computation of Latitude on each course:
AB = (56.45)(cos 23˚13′) = +51.88
CD = (62.01)(cos 63˚25′) = −27.75
DA = (46.23)(cos 15˚54′) = +44.46
Computation of departure on each course"
AB = (56.45)(sin 23˚13′) = +22.25
CD = (62.01)(sin 63˚25′) = −55.45
DA = (46.23)(sin 15˚54′) = −12.67
BC Unknown Unknown - -
Bearing of BC:
