Q#08: In order to locate the position (P) of a sounding boat, the angles APB & BPC subtended at P by three points A, B and C on the shore were measured with a sextant and found to be 28° 42' 40'" and 30° 28' 20" respectively, the point B & P being on opposite of AC. The length of AB & BC scaled from a map were (Last three digits of your Registration number) m and (Last four digits of your Registration number) m respectively, and the angle ABC was 60° 50' 40". Carry out all the seary calculatione to comute the distances DA PR and PC ICLO3I nec
