Sameer Sopori, You didn't have just memorized but have learned in-depth. You are 1000% percent right.

The answer is 15. I too agree.

4-1.5 = 2.5 m reading reading.
And slope is 1/10,
Then the sight on the slope is 2.5 * 10=25m,
According to the question, 45 is the correct answer.

What is the formula for sight on the down slope?
Suresh Awasthi said:

Slope = 1/10.
H.I = 3/2 = 1.5 m.
Height of staff = 4.0 m.
Sight = (4 + 1.5)/(1/10) = 55 m.
According to the question much nearer value is 45 m.
H.I = 3/2 = 1.5 m.
Height of staff = 4.0 m.
Sight = (4 + 1.5)/(1/10) = 55 m.
According to the question much nearer value is 45 m.

Slope= h^2/2L.
h = (1.5)+4\10 = 1.9.
= 1.9^2/2*4 = 45.
h = (1.5)+4\10 = 1.9.
= 1.9^2/2*4 = 45.

@Anshul & @Abhay.
You are making mistake the formula is,
h = (height of instrument + height of staff) / gradient.
How can you change the rule of solving round bracket first and then division?

I think this should be 55m.

I think the height of instrument is 1/2.

Sight on the up slope=(Instrument height +length of the staff)÷gradient.
=(4+1.5)÷1/10,
=55m.
=(4+1.5)÷1/10,
=55m.
