    The document discusses sources of errors when measuring distances using tapes and ways to reduce them. It asks what the total length of a course would be if the rear tape holder had 9 pebbles and 3 pins after measuring, and 1 tape length is equivalent to 30 meters. It provides a data sheet template to record information from taping exercises measuring sloping distances, including trials uphill and downhill, with computations and a sketch.

    QUESTIONS AND PROBLEMS:

    1. What are the different sources of taping errors?

    2. Discuss the different ways to lessen them or fully eliminate taping errors.

    3. What is the total length of the course XY if the rear tape-man holds exactly holds 9
    pebbles and 3 pins after measuring the course XY? Assume that one tape length is
    equivalent to 30m.
