In a triangulation survey, the altitudes of two proposed stations A & B 85 km apart, are respectively 132 and 212m. The intervening obstruction is situated
at C, 60km from and has an elevation of 142m. Ascertain if A and B are
intervisible, and if necessary find by how much B should be raised so that the line of sight must nowhere be less than 3m above the surface of the ground.
The earth's mean radius may be taken as 3000km and coefficient of refraction as 0.07.
