Elevation of top Q of a hill, a staff of 2 m height was erected and observations were made from stations P and R, 60 m apart. The horizontal angle measured at P between R and the top of the flag staff was 60°30' and that measured at R between the top of the flag staff and P was 68°18'. The angle ofelevation to the top of the flag staff from P = 10°12' and from R = 10°48'. Staff readings on BM when instrument was at P = 1.965 m and that with instrument at R = 2.055 m. Calculate the elevation of the top of the hill if reduced level of BM=100m?

Determine the elevations of P and Q if the elevation of A is 75.500m. The stadia constant k and c are respectively 100 and 0.00m.
11. When an alidade and a plane table were set up over a point the elevation of the line of sight of the alidade was 406.29m. In order to determine the elevation of point M, the stepping method was used. The interval intercepted between the stadia hairs on a rod held on M was 1.95m. After the line of sight was depressed for five steps from the horizontal line of sight, the rod reading at the horizontal cross hair was 2.62m. Determine the elevation of point M.
