(a) What is the difference in elevation between points A and B? (b) If the elevation of A is 386.70 m above mean sea level, what is the elevation of B?
Cylinders
A cylinder is a three-dimensional solid shape with two parallel and congruent circular bases, joined by a curved surface at a fixed distance. A cylinder has an infinite curvilinear surface.
Cones
A cone is a three-dimensional solid shape having a flat base and a pointed edge at the top. The flat base of the cone tapers smoothly to form the pointed edge known as the apex. The flat base of the cone can either be circular or elliptical. A cone is drawn by joining the apex to all points on the base, using segments, lines, or half-lines, provided that the apex and the base both are in different planes.
A backsight reading of 2.73 m is taken on point A and subsequently a foresight reading of 1.35 m is taken on point B from a level station established midway between the two points. (a) What is the difference in elevation between points A and B? (b) If the elevation of A is 386.70 m above mean sea level, what is the elevation of B?
