Question: Given a closed traverse with 3 sides as shown below. It is known that the bearing angle of line A B is 6 5 3

Given a closed traverse with 3 sides as shown below. It is known that the bearing angle of line AB is 6535'56'' NE. Based on the measurements, the observed interior angle at A is 5556'40''; the observed interior angle at Point B is 8001220'', and the observed interior angle at Point C is 4351'30''.
Based on the onsite measurement, the lengths of two sides: AB and AC, are found to be 122.450ft and 174.120ft, respectively according to the measurements. However, due to some reasons, the length of BC cannot be measured directly. Answer the following questions.
(a) Based on the observed interior angles, what is the error of closure? (3 pt)
(b) Based on your answer of (a), balance three interior angles evenly, and give the balanced interior angles at Point A, B and C, respectively. Fill the following table. (2 pt)
