Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A tacheometer at point P measures readings of 1.5 m and 2.4 m from points Q and R at different angles of elevation. If the RL is known to be 200 m and the height of the instrument is 1.2 m, calculate the horizontal distance and elevation of Q.
💡 Hint: Ensure to calculate each angle effectively before applying to the formula.
Question 2
Given a tacheometric survey with a measurement of 100 m horizontal distance to a height of 6 m above a reference level of 50 m, determine the angle of elevation.
💡 Hint: Think about how the opposite side relates to the base distance.
