Problem 2 An angle is observed repeatedly using the same equipment and procedure, and the results in degrees-minutes-seconds are listed in # 1-5. Based on the given, calculate the following: (a) compute the lines most probable angle, (b) its relative precision if the probability of error is 90%. 1. 162°20'00", 162°21'20", 162°21'40", 162°20'40", 162°19'40", 162°21'25", & 162°22'10" 2. Same as # 1 but discard observation 162°20'00" 3. Same as # 1 but discard observations 162°21'20" and 162°21'40" 4. Same as # 1 but include two additional observations 162°21'25" and 162°22'10" 5. Same as # 1 but include three additional observations 162°21'40", 162°20'40" and 162°19'40",
