Question Bank
1. If the reduced bearing of a line AB is N60°W and length is 100 m, then the latitude and departure
respectively of the line AB will be +86.6 m, 50 m.
2. The angle between the prolongation of the preceding line and the forward line of a traverse is called
deflection angle.
3. Transit rule of adjusting the consecutive coordinates of a traverse is used where angular
measurements are more accurate than linear measurements.
4. Which of the following methods of theodolite traversing is suitable for locating the details which are
far away from transit stations? measuring angles to the point from at least two stations.
5. Subtense bar is an instrument used for measurement of horizontal distances in undulated areas.
6. The number of horizontal cross wires in a stadia diaphragm is three.
7. If the intercept on a vertical staff is observed as 0.75 m from a tacheometer, the horizontal distance
between tacheometer and staff station is 75 m.
8. For a tacheometer the additive and multiplying constants are respectively 0 and 100.
9. Overturning of vehicles on a curve can be avoided by using transition curve.
10. Tacheometric method of contouring is most suitable for hilly terrain
11. Theodolite is an instrument used for measuring horizontal and vertical angles
12. The process of turning the telescope about the vertical axis in horizontal plane is known as swinging.
