4 AREA CALCULATION
The area of a plot was calculated by first dividing the plot into two parts through the
diagonal. Then, we make use of Hero’s formula to calculate each of the triangle and
the value were added together to make the entire area of the plot.
S 1 =44 . 29
A 1 =296 .279 m 2
S 2 =50. 865
A 2 =480 . 212m 2
Total area of the parcel = Area A 1 + Area A 2
Area = 296.279+480.212
Area = 777.348m2
The observer with the compass stand on a point and another member holding the
ranging pole at the other end. The observation was made at every station and recorded
in the field book. The operation was carried out at all the stations.
Line BC and CB at point / Stations B and C are free of local attraction. So the
