Assignment No. (2)

1- Given a coordinates of two points A and B as follows:
St.
A
B

X-coordinates (m)
500.354
660.242

Y-coordinates (m)
500.925
188.753

Using C++, design a general program to do the following:

i. Calculate the length (L) of line AB
ii. Calculate the Whole circle bearing of line AB
L = ( )2 + ( )2
= tan1

( )

[Reduced bearing]

2- The following observations for an anti-clock closed loop traverse:

Interior Angle
100 45 37
231 23 43
17 12 58
89 03 28
101 34 24

Length (m)
647.250
203.030
720.350
610.240
285.130

It is required to design a general C++ program to do the following:

-

Compute the adjusted interior angles.

Compute the azimuth for the traverse lines if azimuth of line (1-2) is 126 55 17.

Compute the departures and latitudes, linear misclosure, and relative precision of the
traverse.

Balance the departures and latitudes using the compass (Bowditch) rule.

Page 1|2

Using the balanced departures and latitudes from previous step and starting coordinates
X1 = 10000 m and Y1 = 5000 m, calculate the coordinates of the other traverse points.

Calculate the final adjusted lengths and azimuths of the traverse.
