Question 02: A tract of land has three straight boundaries AB, BC, and CD. The fourth boundary
DA is irregular. The measured lengths are as under: AB = 135 m, BC = 191 m, CD = 126 m, BD
= 255 m. The offsets measured outside the boundary DA to the irregular boundary at a regular
interval of 30 m from D, are as below. Determine the area of the tract.
