State Plane Coordinate Systems

The state plane coordinate system (SPCS or SPS) is a collection of 124 coordinate systems or geographic zones prepared for particular regions of the U.S. Every state consists of one or more than one state plane zone, the boundaries of which generally follow the county lines. Inside the U.S., there are 110 zones in total, 10 more zones in Alaska, 5 in Hawaii, and 1 for Puerto Rico and US Virgin islands. The system is extensively used for geospatial and geographic data assembling by the state and local governments.

In tacheometry survey, an intercept of 0.755m was recorded on a staff which was believed to vertical, and the vertical angle measured on the theodolite was +15º. Actually, the staff which was 4 metres long was 0.14m out of plumb bob and leaning backwards away from the instrument position. Assuming it was an anallatic instrument with a multiplying constant of 100, what would have been the error in the computed horizontal distance?
