Solution – WILL BE UPLOADED SOON. 

2. On 21^st July 1992, in DR 37⁰ 22’N 96⁰ 36’W, the sextant meridian altitude of the Moon’s UL was 62⁰1’. If IE was 0.4’ off the arc & HE was 17m, required the latitude and PL.

Solution –

3. On 26^th Feb 1992, in DR 50⁰ 10’S 64⁰ 12’E, the observed altitude of the Moon’s LL on the meridian was 63⁰0’. IF HE was 20m, find the latitude and the PL.

Solution –

4. On 2^nd Sept 1992, in DR longitude 175⁰ 16’E, the sextant meridian altitude of the Moon’s UL was 23⁰8’ South of the observed. If IE was 0.2’ off the arc and HE was 14m, find the latitude and the direction of the PL.

Solution –

5. On 29^th Nov 1992, in DR longitude 140⁰ 12’W, the sextant meridian altitude of the Moon’s UL was 62⁰6’ North of the observed. If HE was 10m, and IE was 0.6’ on the arc, required the latitude and the direction of the PL.
