The areas in cut of two irregular sections 60 meters apart are 150 m2 and 225 m2, respectively. Both sections are three-level sections with base width of 8 m and side slope of 3H:2V. Assume the ground slope uniformly between the two sections and use the prismoidal correction formula. 1. Determine the volume of cut (VE) using end area method in m3. 2. Determine the volume of prismoidal correction (Vcp) in m3. 3. Determine the volume of cut in m3 using prismoidal correction formula
