  • CM208 Construction Site Surveying Homework #6

    Problem 1 Given points: A(N1200, E1850), B(N2100, E2875), C(N1900, E4000). We treat coordinates as (x=Easting, y=Northing): A(1850,1200), B(2875,2100), C(4000,1900) We use the circumcenter formulas: D = 2[x1(y2-y3)+x2(y3-y1)+x3(y1-y2)] Plug in: D = 2[1850(2100-1900)+2875(1900-1200)+4000(1200-2100)] D = 2[1850(200)+2875(700)+4000(-900)] D = 2[370000 + 2012500 – 3600000] D = 2[-1217500] = -2435000 Compute Ux: Ux = (1850^2+1200^2)(2100-1900)+(2875^2+2100^2)(1900-1200)+(4000^2+1900^2)(1200-2100) / D Compute…
