w = weight per unit length (N/m); T = tension applied (N); L = recorded length (m)
2. Trigonometric problems like finding the width of the river if distances and angles are given
Draw the diagram correctly and apply Tan , sin and cos
3. Calculating back bearing, fore bearing, interior angles, magnetic bearing (if true bearing and declination are
given)
Fore bearing (F.B.) Back bearing (B.B.) = 180o
In a closed traverse ABCDE, interior angle of A = Back bearing of EA Fore bearing of AB
Magnetic bearing = True bearing Declination (East is taken as positive)

11. Finding the coordinate or bearing of unknown point/line using area method
A
You may asked to find the coordinate of F or bearing of line DF such that it divides the
area in the ratio of 1:k
E
Use Double meridian distance or coordinate method to find the area of AEDFA and
DFBCD and equate them in the ratio of 1:k. You will have one equation with two
unknowns. The other equation can be obtained by the given condition. Here the
D
condition is that F lies on the line AB 2nd Equation
C
Solve the two equations for two variables to get the coordinate of point F, hence the bearing of the line can be found.

M = Multiplying constant of the instrument. Its value is marked on the tracing arm of the instrument,
RF & RJ = the final and initial readings,
N = the number of complete revolutions of the dial taken positive when the zero mark passes the index mark in
a clockwise direction and negative when in counterclockwise direction
C = Constant of the instrument marked on the instrument arm just above the scale divisions. Its value is taken as
zero when the needle point is kept outside the area. For the needle point inside, -the value of MC is equal to the
area of zero circle.
