12.13 Calculate the area inside the traverse of Problem 10.18 by coordinates and check by
DMDs.
12.14 Compute the area enclosed by the traverse of Problem 10.19 using the DMD method.
Check by coordinates.
*12.16 Determine the area of the lot in Problem 10.26.
12.22 Compute by DMDs the area in hectares within a closed-polygon traverse ABCDEFA by
placing the X and Y axes through the most southerly and most westerly stations,
respectively. Departures and latitudes (in meters) follow. AB: E dep. 30, N lat. = 40; BC:
E dep. = 70, N lat. = 10; CD = E dep. = 30, S lat = 50; DE: W dep = 60, S lat. = 40; EF:
W dep = 90, S lat = 30; FA: E dep. = 20, N lat = 70.
12.24 Calculate the area of a piece of property bounded by a traverse and circular arc with the
following coordinates in feet at angle points: A (445.18, 913.88), B (453.67, 835.51), C
(663.67, 835.51), D (663.67, 935.51), E (465.12, 936.04) with a circular arc of radius
19.99 ft starting at E, tangent to DE, and ending at A.
12.26 Partition the lot of Problem 12.24 into two
equal areas by means of a line parallel to BC.
Tabulate in clockwise consecutive order the
lengths and azimuths of all sides of each
12.27 Lot ABCD between two parallel street lines is 350.00 ft
deep and has a 220.00 ft frontage (AB) on one street and
a 260.00 ft frontage (CD) on the other. Interior angles
at A and B are equal, as are those at C and D. What
distances AE and BF should be laid off by a surveyor to
divide the lot into two equal areas by means of a line EF
