82. At about GMT 1436, on 3 December, the lower limb of the Moon is observed with a sextant having an index error of 2.5' on the arc. The height of eye is 32 feet. The sextant altitude (hs) is 3°38.8'. What is the observed altitude?
The observed altitude is calculated by correcting the sextant altitude for index error, dip, and the Moon's altitude correction. Applying these corrections to the given sextant altitude results in an observed altitude of 429.1'.
