Given in the accompanying tabulation are the observed data for a traverse obtained from a transit - tape
survey. Determine the latitudes and departures of each course and balance these quantities by employing the
compass rule. Also determine the linear error of closure, bearing of the side of error, and the relative precision
Finally, determine the adjusted length and adjusted bearing of each course and tabulate values accordingly.
