SIDE AZIMUTH BEARING LATITUDE DEPARTURE
(m)
In theory, the latitude and departure of a closed polygon must be equal to zero.
∑ 𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑢𝑑𝑒 = 0
Checking,
Here we conclude that the latitude of FA is −19.75 to able to prove the theory.
∑ 𝑑𝑒𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 = 0
Checking,
Given the latitude and departure we are able to determine the distance from F to A using,
𝐹𝐴 = √19.752 + 30.232
𝐹𝐴 = 36.11 𝑚
𝐹𝐴 = −19.75
𝐹𝐴 = −30.23
