Question: Consider a five - sided closed polygon traverse. The azimuth of side A B is fixed at 2 1 8 5 9 ' 3 0

Consider a five-sided closed polygon traverse. The azimuth of side
AB is fixed at 21859'30''.A=13247'06'',B=10846'18'',
C=10719'37'',D=8150'36'',E=10916'18''.(Note: line
BC bears SE.) The lengths of the sides (in feet) are as follows
AB=202.74,BC=283.87,CD=498.37,DE=320.33, and
EA=380.78. The coordinates of station A are x=20,000.00ft
and Y=15,000.00ft.
Part A
Use the coordinate method to compute the area enclosed by the traverse above.
Express your answer in feet squared to two significant figures. Note: Traverse does not need to be adjusted to determine the correct answer.
