<br />REDUCTION TO HORIZONTAL
<br />Horizontal distance = Slope distance multiplied by the
<br />1 cosine of the vertical angle. Thus: slope distance =319.4ft.
<br />e�,",,,,,ce,
<br />Vert. angle=5° 101. From Table, Page IX. cos 5° 101=
<br />'9959. Horizontal distance=319.4X.9959=318.09 fL
<br />slopa Horizontal distance also= Slope distance minus slope
<br />Ve distance times (1—cosine of vertical angle). With the
<br />same figures as in the preceding example, the follow -
<br />Horizontal distance ing result is obtained. Cosine 51 10l=.9959.1—.9959=.0041.
<br />319.4X.0041=1.31:319.4-1.31=318.09 ft.
<br />When the rise is known, the horizontal distance is approximately:—the slope dist-
<br />ance less the square of the rise divided by twice the slope distance. Thus: rise =14 ft.,
<br />slope distance=302.6 YL Horizontal distance=302.6— 14 X 14 =302.6-0.32=302.28 ft.
