The magnetic bearing of line AB is 88°45'. Calculate the true bearing if the magnetic declination is 5°30' east.

The length of the survey line was measured with a 30 m tape and was found to be 1000 m. As a check, the length was again measured with another 20 m tape, and was found to be 1010 m. On comparing the 30 m tape with a test gauge, it was found to be 0.10 m too long. Find the actual length of the 20 m chain.

The R.L. of the floor of a factory is 30.500. Staff reading on the floor is 1.610 m and staff reading when the staff is held inverted with the bottom touching the tie beam of the roof truss is 3.700 m. Find the height of the tie beam above the floor.

The fore bearing of line AB is 15°30'. What will be the back bearing of the line AB?
