The difference of BB and FB of DE is 180O hence station A and B free from local attraction
FB of DE= 325∘15’ , BB Of DE= 145∘15’
FB-BB= 325∘15’ - 145∘15’= 180∘
Observed BB of CD= 207∘15’
Correct FB of CD= 207∘15’ - 180∘=27∘15’
Observed FB of CD is 25∘45’
Error is 27∘15’ - 25∘45’=1∘30’
Observed BB of BC is = 278∘30’
Correct BB of BC= 278∘30’+ 1∘30’ = 280∘
Correct FB of BC = 280∘- 180∘= 100∘
Observed FB of BC=100∘5’
Error is 100∘- 100∘45’ = -0∘45’
Observed BB of AB = 219∘15’
Correct BB of AB= 219∘150 -0∘45’=218∘30’
Correct FB of AB = 218∘30’ - 180∘ =38∘30’
