In leveling across a deep and wide river, reciprocal level readings were taken between two points X and Y as follows: a) With the instrument set up near x, the readings on x are 1.283 and 1.285m; on the distant point Y, the rod readings are 2.618, 2.619, 2.621, and 2.622m. b) With the instrument set up near Y, the rod readings on Y are 3.478 and 3.476m; on the distant point X, the rod readings are 2.143, 2.140, 2.146 and 2.144m Determine the true difference in elevation between the two points and the elevation of Y if the known elevation of X is 290.082m *
