If a closed traverse has angles of 70°, 110°, and 180°, determine the remaining angle and identify if it’s an interior or exterior angle.
💡 Hint: Sum all angles of a closed loop and check for requirements of angle types.
For an open traverse, if you measure two angles turning to the right at 40° and then to the left at 30°, what is the net deflection angle from your starting direction?
💡 Hint: Keep track of the direction of angle turns while calculating.
