Q1.	The error due to bad ranging is
A.	Compensation [Wrong Answer]
B.	Cumulative positive [Correct Answer]
C.	Cumulative negative [Wrong Answer]
D.	Both (B) and (C) above [Wrong Answer]
View Answer 89 -66 Explanation:- Answer : B Discuss it below : Vidyashree Antin Said on 2022-12-22 22:52:03 For bad straitening, bad ranging and wrong alignment are always cumulative positive in nature and careless holding of chain are accidental errors and these accidental errors are compensative in nature .
