Question

A field is in the form of a regular pentagon. The direction of the bounding sides was surveyed with an assumed meridian of 5° to the right of the true north. As surveyed with an assumed meridian, the bearing of one side AB is N 33°20’ W.
Compute the true bearing of each side of the pentagon.
Compute the azimuth (from south) of each side of the pentagon.

Answer 1

1. True bearing of line BC is N 43°40' E

2. True azimuth of line CD is 115°40'

3. True bearing of line AE is N 79°40' E
