To reduce the slope distance (S) to an equivalent horizontal distance (H) as shown in the figure given below, the following independent observations were taken.
S = 29.95 m ± 0.01 m; θ = 4°30' ± 10'
The required precision of computed horizontal distance is ± 0.005 m. Assume a “balanced accuracy” where the contribution to precision to the horizontal distance comes equally from the slope distance and angle measurements. The minimum number of angle observations to achieve the desired precision is

In tangential method of tacheometry, two vanes in a staff were fixed at a distance of 1.0 m with the bottom vane fixed at 1.0 m. The levelling staff was held vertical at a point P and the vertical angles of the vanes observed were 5°30' and 3°15', respectively. The vertical distance between the instrument axis and the bottom vane would be ______ m (rounded off to two decimal places).

In a two-dimensional coordinate system, it is proposed to determine the size and shape of a triangle ABC in addition to its location and orientation. For this, all the internal angles and sides of the triangle were observed. Further, the planar coordinates of point A and bearing/azimuth of line AB were known. The redundancy (r) for the above system will be equal to ______ (Answer in integer).

In the figure below, \( I_1 \) and \( I_2 \) are the two instrument stations. The instrument stations and the object (P) lie in the same vertical plane. Assume all instruments and staff are levelled.
\( L \) = horizontal distance between the object and the station \( I_2 \)
\( b \) = horizontal distance between the instrument stations
\( S \) = staff reading at the Benchmark (BM) for horizontal line of sight
\( H \) = reading on the staff at P
\( r \) = height of the point sighted by instruments at the staff kept at P from the line of sight of the instruments
