These two equations are needed to find the solution for a land surveying problem. The equations represent the summations of the latitudes and departures for a closed traverse wherein one leg of the traverse has the length known but the bearing is unknown and another leg where the bearing is known but the length is unknown. I solved this problem about 15 years ago but my algebra fails me now.
L cos a + R cos B + D = 0
L sin a + R sin B + C = 0
I need to solve for L (distance) and B (angle).
I am not a student needing a problem solved. This problem represents a needed solution for laying out an intersection on a highway using old school methods.
