The observed lengths of the sides (in feet) of a five-sided closed polygon traverse are as follows: AB= 202.74, BC = 285.87, CD=499.37, DE=321.33, and EA = 382.78. (Note: Assume units of feet for all distances.) The preliminary azimuths obtained after balancing the angles are as follows: AB=138° 16'27", BC = 67°02′46", CD = 354°22'24", DE = 256° 13'01", EA = 185°29′20".

Question
The observed lengths of the sides (in feet) of a five-sided closed polygon
traverse are as follows:
AB= 202.74, BC = 285.87, CD= 499.37, DE = 321.33, and EA = 382.78.
(Note: Assume units of feet for all distances.)
The preliminary azimuths obtained after balancing the angles are as follows:
AB = 138° 16'27", BC = 67°02′46", CD = 354°22'24",
DE = 256° 13'01", EA = 185° 29'20".
