Thanks @sameer.

But if rising slope then maximum distance measured only 15 meters am I right?

If we are levelling on the sloped surface then we need to keep staff near the instrument, otherwise, it will not be visible inside the instrument because of the slope (if the distance is more).
so here is the formula, UNDER WHICH DISTANCE WE MUST KEEP STAFF,
Sight= (Staff ht.- instrument ht.)/(1/10)
= (4 - 1.5) /0.1,
= 2.5/0.1,
= 25m.

If you will keep the staff more than 25m away from the instrument , IT WILL NOT BE VISIBLE INSIDE THE INSTRUMENT,

Staff visible= 4-1.5=2.5m,
Site=2.5/(1/10),
= 2.5x10,
= 25m.

Here, 2.5 * 10 = 25.

The Hi is 1.5m so when and staff 4m.
The reading will be 2.5m on staff on plane. The slope being 1 in 10.
2.5 * 10 = 25 on down slope.

The instrument height of 1.5m, staff height 4m so 4 - 1.5 = 2.5m.

Please tell me what is the different betwn downslope an upslope.
