The taped distance of a line is 198.175 m using a 50 m steel tape weighing 2.4 kg with a cross sectional area of 0.036 cm2 at 32°F with a pull of 8 N is applied, supported at 20 m interval during the measurement. The angle of the tape during measurement is 11°20′. The tape is exactly 50 m at a temp of 28°F at standard pull of 5 N, find the following: a) Correction due to combined correction of the tape b) Correction due to slope c) The correct horizontal distance of the line
