3. The shape of the drainage basin can be approximated by a polygon, whose vertices are located at the following coordinates: (5,5), (-5,5), (-5,-5), (0.-10), and (5,-5). The rainfall amounts of a storm were recorded by several rain gages situated within and nearby the basin as shown in the table. All coordinates are expressed in kilometers. Determine the average rainfall on the basin by (a) arithmetic- mean method, (b) the Thiessen method, and (c) the isohyetal method.
