The upper and lower stadia hair readings on a stadia rod held at station B were observed as 3.50 and 1.00 m, respectively, with the use of a transit with an internal focusing telescope and having a stadia interval factor of 99.5. The height of the instrument above station A is 1.45 m and the rod reading is taken at 2.25 m. If the vertical angle observed is − 23 ∘ 34 ′ , what is the elevation of station B if the elevation of station A is 155.54 m above mean sea level?
