A closed traverse (F-G-H-J-F) has the following departures and latitudes.
\table[[Course,Dep,Lat],[FG,185.42,-263.91],[GH,157.34,110.67],[HJ,-229.63,168.05],[JF,-113.97,-14.27]]
Assume that point F has a coordinate of N400.00, E200.00. All dimensions are in feet. Determine the following:
a. Calculate the coordinates at the other points of the traverse.
b. Calculate the area of the traverse in acres using the coordinate method.
c. Calculate the area of the traverse in acres using the double meridian distance method.
Please solve for all parts a) through c). show all work. Answer to part B should match the answer to part C.
