represented by what distance on the map? - ANSWERSx/ (14,000)(12) = 1/100,000
x = (14,000)(12)/100,000
x=1.68
The azimuth from a point to a reference mark is 264°26'50" as measured from astronomic north. If the
Laplace correction is disregarded and the convergence is +0°26'46", what is the state plane coordinate
grid azimuth to the reference mark? - ANSWERSgrid azimuth = astronomic azimuth - convergence
=264°26'50" - 00°26'42"
=264°00'08"
The equation for a parabolic vertical curve is given. What is the value of x at the maximum or minimum
elevation for the curve expressed in terms of constants a and b?
y = ax^2 + bx + c - ANSWERS0 = 2ax + b
x= -b/2a
For a five-sided, closed traverse with an angular discloser of 10 sec, what is the sum of the interior
angles? - ANSWERSsum of interior angles = (n-2)(180°)
n=number of angles
, sum = (5-2)(180°) = 540°
with misclousre = 540° ± 10
= 540°00'00" or 539°59'50"
What is the width of a rectangle with a length of 400 ft and an area of 1 ac? - ANSWERSA=wl w=A/l
=(1ac)(43,560ft2/ac)/400
=108.9 ft
A distance of 30 chains is equivalent to which of the following? - ANSWERS(30 ch)(66 ft/ch) = 1980ft
(30 ch)(4 rods/ch) = 120 rods
In a right triangle with two sides (other than the hypotenuse) of 100 ft and 200 ft, what is the smallest
angle? - ANSWERS= arctan(200/100)
= 63°26'06"
= arctan(100/200)
= 26°33'54"
Considering the series of measurements 29.25, 29.23, 29.25, 29.27, 29.21, and 29.25, the vale of 29.24
