Q. The following details refer to a closed traverse:

LineConsecutive coordinate
Northing (m)Southing (m)Easting (m)Westing (m)
PQ—-437173—-
QR101—-558—-
RS419—-—-96
SP—-83—-634

The length and direction (whole circle bearing) of closure, respectively are

A. 1 m and 90°

B. 2 m and 90°

C. 1 m and 270°

D. 2 m and 270°

Ans: 1 m and 90°

Sol:

∑Northing = 101 + 419 = 520 m

∑Southing = 437 + 83 = 520

∑Easting = 173 + 558 = 731 m

∑Westing = 96 + 634 = 730 m

∑L = ∑Northing – ∑Southing = 520 – 520 = 0

∑D = ∑Easting – ∑Westing = 731 – 730 = 1 m
