A line of levels is run from BM1 to BM2, which is 12 km long. Elevation of BM1 was found out to be 100 m and that of BM2 is 125.382 m. Average backsight and foresight distance were 150 m and 100 m respectively. m. a) (Situation 2) if the average backsight reading is 3.4 m and every time it is taken, the rod is inclined to the side from vertical by 4°, what should be the corrected elevation of BM2?

QUESTION 2
A line of levels is run from BM1 to BM2, which is 12 km long. Elevation of BM1 was found out to be 100 m and that of BM2 is 125.382 m. Average
backsight and foresight distance were 150 m and 100 m respectively.
m. a) (Situation 2) if the average backsight reading is 3.4 m and every time it is taken, the rod is inclined to the side from
vertical by 4°, what should be the corrected elevation of BM2?
