Staff intercept is differ between length of top and bottom crosshair in the instrument (say S1 and S3). Google "tacheometry" and just see the image you'll get everything.

Why not an option D?

Option D is incorrect because the intercept rather decreases if you tilt the staff towards making it normal to the line of sight.

I think option D is also correct.

That's a wrong answer.

It must lie at the center of the telescope.

Answer B is right. Think again and visualise a laser beam as a line of sight and a objects going away from normal. The reading will increase as it starts from zero at bottom and max st top.

If staff is tilted then what is the answer?

Jwala said:   9 years ago
If the staff is tilted away I think value increase. Just visualise a staff with the inclination and straight.
