idiot here made a mistake surveying - too few of the points were visible from
each other, and as a result a few don't tie in: can anybody help? i've been
poring over geometric and trig formulas for the past few days but can't seem to
find what i need - might be a lost cause, but anyway:
        have straight line ABC where AB is 50m, BC is 50m, AC is 100m
        have point X where i set up the theodolite
        have angle AXB of 51.4 degrees
        have angle BXC of 15.2 degrees
        so angle AXC of 66.6 degrees
know i couldn't solve it with just one of the angles, but if the line ABC is
straight and the XC is common, is it possible? how?
 
lazy bastard finally set up a website:
