3
it is equal to the square or the standard deviation.
variance (sx²)
4
what do you measure in a standard deviation?
variation or dispersion on a set of data
5
what are the two types of measurements in surveying?
Directly and Indirectly
6
by mathematical definition, it is the number of favorable events divided by total number of events
probability
7
an error due to imperfections, constructions and improper adjustments
instrumental error
8
the angle measured in terms of grades. in this system a right angle is divided into 100 grades therefore one revolution is equal to 400 grades
centesimal system

it is the process of determining the extent size or dimensions of a particular quantity in comparison to a given standard
Measurement
17
it is a measure of the amount of variation or dispersion on a set of data in relation to its mean.

deviation
19
a unit system where the fundamental units is the mil where by definition 1600 miles = 1 right angle does one circular revolution is equal to 6,400 miles

arithmetic mean
22
a type of measurement which the observed value is determined by its relationship to some other known values.
Indirect Measurements
23
an error caused by variations in the phenomena or nature
natural error
24
a type of measurement which is the comparison of the measured quantity with a standard measuring units.
