Deflection angle in a traverse is equal to the
An angle between the inclined line of sight and the horizontal is called
The direct angles may have any value between
The capacity of a telescope of producing a sharp image is called its
When the cross hairs are not clearly visible
The most commonly used set of theodolite operations are
The image formed by the objective in the plane of cross hairs is
A line Joining the optical centre of the object glass and the Centre of the eyepiece is known as
The least count of theodolite in measuring angle is
The process of turning the telescope of a theodolite Over the supporting axis through 180° in a vertical plane is called
The theodolite is an instrument used for measuring very accurately

Isogonic lines are the lines having the same
A freely floating needle slightly gets inclined to the horizontal anywhere except on the equator. It is called.
In a whole circle bearing system, maximum value of bearing is
When the magnetic bearing of the sun at noon is 185° 20' the magnetic declination will be
The magnetic bearing of a line is 54° 30' and the magnetic declination is 4° 30'west. The true bearing of a line will be
At equator the amount of dip is
The horizontal angle between the true meridian and magnetic meridian is Known as
The direction indicated by a freely suspend Properly magnetic needle is called
The reduced bearing corresponding whole circle bearing of 210° 15' is
Sum of the included angles in a traverse of n sides can be obtained by
The lines of earth's magnetic field run from:
If the fore bearing of a line is N 36° 25' W its back bearing will be
The line in which the plane passing through the given point and the north and south poles intersects the surface of the earth is called:
In a whole circle bearing System, S 25° 25' E corresponding to
ABCD is a square, Bearing of AB = 50° hence bearing of DC is
If bearing of AB = N50°E, bearing of AC = N40°W when angle BAC
If bearing of OA =20°, and bearing of OB= 140° then angle AOB
An Optical Square is used to measure angles by

The adjustable cross-staff is used for setting out an offset
The instrument used for setting out an offset at a right angle is called
The limiting length of the offset is ------- when it is set out by eye
The cumulative errors that occur for a length of line 'l' are proportional to

A line joining some fixed points on the main survey line, is called a
A 20 m chain after measuring a distanceof 4000 m was found to be 10 cm more than the designated length. If the chain was Standardized before the commencement of survey then the length is
Correction for pull is
Correction for slope is:
Indirect ranging is adopted when the two ends of chain line are
The correction for Negative error sag required is
The error in measured length due to sag of chain or tape is known as
When the length of chain used in measuring distance is longer than the Standard length, the error in measured distance will be:
