To calculate the latitude of a line in surveying, we use the projection of the line length on the north-south axis. When the reduced bearing of a line is , it means the line is perfectly aligned along the north-south axis.
Calculation:
Given:
- Reduced bearing
- Length of the line
Latitude Calculation:
Since the reduced bearing is , the line is perfectly aligned along the north-south axis, and thus the latitude component will be:
\(\text{Latitude} = L \cos(\theta) \)
Substituting the given values:
\(\theta = 0^\circ \)
\(\cos(0^\circ) = 1 \)
Therefore, the latitude of the line is:
\(\text{Latitude} = 1 \times \cos(0^\circ) = 1 \)
Conclusion:
The latitude of the line is
