Question

In traverse measurements, distance observations are more likely to be the source of a mistake or to introduce error. The best way to avoid a large mistake of one foot or greater is to a) Measure all lines forward and back b) Sight high on the prism rod c) Make sure that the prism rod or tripod is plumb d) Ensure that the correct temperature and pressure is used The ___ traverse adjustment method is a mathematically rigorous method. It is based upon the theory which models random errors and results in adjusted values having the highest probability. a) Least squares b) Compass rule c) Transit rule d) Simpson's rule

Explanation / Answer

17. To minimize the errors the best way is to measure the line both forward and backward direction

Hence, option a will be the correct choice.

18.

Method of least squares rigorous one.so option a is correct
