A steel tape is 100.00 ft long and has a weight of 0.0225 lb/ft and is used to measure a line from A to B in two segments (one full tape length and one partial tape length), supported at the ends only for each of the two segments. The recorded distance is 181.83 ft. The pull at the time of measurement is 12 lb. What is the length of the line corrected for sag? (Assume that no other tape corrections need to be applied.)
