Notes

The following problems are used for various activities including assignments in
CPPSIS3009: Perform basic drafting and CPPSIS3010: Perform basic spatial
computations.
Note: Questions (or sub-questions) marked with ** are for CAD only and
dont have to be manually calculated for CPPSIS3010: Perform basic spatial
computations. Any area calculation should be done in CAD only.
