A rectangular parcel of land was surveyed. The measurement for side X
was 339.21 ft with an error of ±0.05 ft. Side Y was measured as 563.67 ft,
with an error of ±0.09 ft. What is the area of the parcel and what is the
expected error in the area?
Answer: Area = 191,202 ft2 or 4.389 ac.; standard error = ±41.5 ft2
Does anyone know how the standard error was calculated ?
