Angle method of triangulation adjustment

A method of adjusting a triangulation network, using adjustment by conditions, in which the measurements are of angles and the unknowns are corrections to the measured angles. The angle method is similar to the direction method, in which the corrections are to measured directions (azimuths). The angle method should be used where a chain of single triangles is to be adjusted. For an extensive network with overlapping triangles, the direction method of adjustment is preferred.
