Question
A pipeline transporting natural gas is to be laid out on the side of
a hill (from pt. A to pt. B) as shown in the figure. Trigonometric
leveling was performed where a transit (with a stadia factor of
100.8 and stadia constant of 0.38) was set at pt. C somewhere
between pts. A and B. The following readings were observed.
