    The document discusses various surveying concepts and questions related to tacheometry, curves, and geodetic surveying.

    The document mentions different methods like tacheometry, stadia surveying, and analytic lens that can be used to determine distances using a telescope. Each method differs in its principles and calculations.

    The document provides an example of determining the elevation of station A using tacheometric observations taken with an analytic lens. It involves calculating reduced levels based on instrument height, staff readings, and vertical angles.
