The line of sight of a wye level was tested by setting up exactly midway between two points A and B. The rodreading on A was 1.520m and at B was 1.395. The instrument was next set up at B and rod readings at A andB are 1.683m and 1.490m respectively. What is the true difference in elevation between A and B?
