h^2/2l = 1.8 * 1.8/15 * 2 =3.24/30 = 0.108 = 0.11.

Correct answer is 0.108 but we take +0.11.

Yes, option C is the right answer.

I think the answer is [C].cumulative, - 0.11 m; because slope correction is always negative. plz, anyone describes it .

0.108 only coming ~.11 in slope error is only cumulative +0.11.

Error due to slope correction is always +ve so from option it's +0.11.
