1. A common method employed in designating the direction of a line is its direction as given
by the angle between the meridian and the line measured

2. In the plane surveying, the area of a tract land is taken as its projection upon a horizontal
plane. However, areas of much larger tracts of land such as a country or a continent are
taken as the___________.

positions have been fixed by other surveys of higher precision is referred to as ___________

7. When adjusting an open compass traverse there are two important steps to perform. The first
