Solution:

SUBDMSION OF AREAS

a) To cut off an area from a given point.

let us say, that the entire area of the

lot is 10,000 sq.m. It is reqUired to divide
the lot into two equal parts such that the
division line shall pass thru comer one of
the lot concern. Bearings and distances of
all courses are known.

CD Bearing ofline 4 - 1:

Lines BearinQ Distance lAT DEP

1- 2 N 16'30' E 105.30 +100.96 +29.91
2-3 N 15'15' E 33.50 +32.32 +8.80
3-4 NT10'W 15.20 +15.08 -1.90
4-1 ........... ....... - -148.36 - 36.82

36.82
tan bearing (4 - ~) = 148.36
Division line
Bearing (4 -1) =S 13'56' W
Since it is difficult to approximate the
@ Distance of line 4· 1: actual position of the subdivision line, it is
36.82 therefore advisable to solve for the bearing
Distance (4 -1) =Sin 13'56
and distance of line 3 to 1. Knowing the
Distance (4 -1) =152.91 m. bearing of the line 3-1 and 3-4, '" could be
computed. let us say A1 =2000 sq.m.
@ Magnetic declination: only, so we still have 3000 sq.m. more to
f12 =(1.5)2 +(152.91 'f be added in order to obtain the required
- 2(1.5)(152.91) Cos 103'34' area. A2 therefore would be equal to
h = 153.27 m. 5000 - 2000 =3000 sq.m. Knowing the
Sin 103'34' _ Sin '" distance "a" and the angle "', we could
153.27 - 1.5 compute the distance "b" from the relation.
'" =0'33'
abSin '"
Since the random line is supposed to be the A2 =-2-
true position of 1 - 4 based on true bearing, A, + A2 =5000 sq.m.
then the magnetic declination during the (the required area to be cut off!
survey is 0'33' E.
