Magnetic Declination: 1. In a compass survey made twenty years ago the observed magnetic bearing of a reference line XY was N 42'21' E when the magnetic declination was 6'25' East. Lately in 2018, a new survey was made and the declination in the same survey site changed to 10'35' West. Determine the follwing descriptions of line XY: a.) Its true bearing twenty years ago; b.) The true azimuth from North and South; c.) Its new magnetic bearing; and d.) The magnetic azimuth from North and South in 2018.

Transcribed Image Text:Magnetic Declination:
1. In a compass survey made twenty years ago
the observed magnetic bearing of a reference
line XY was N 42'21' E when the magnetic
declination was 6*25' East. Lately in 2018, a
new survey was made and the declination in
the same survey site changed to 10'35' West.
Determine the following descriptions of line
XY:
a.) Its true bearing twenty years ago;
b.) The true azimuth from North and South;
c.) Its new magnetic bearing; and
d.) The magnetic azimuth from North and
South in 2018.

Transcribed Image Text:2. From the closed compass traverse shown, if
the forward bearing of line AB is N 78'9' E,
compute the: LEC, the bearing of the LEC
and the RP.
