  • A. 1, 3 and 4
  • B. 1 and 3
  • C. 2 and 3
  • D. Only 2
Correct Answer: Option C - Errors which may occurs in the same direction and which finally tends to accumulate are said to be cumulative error. • Cumulative error is directly proportional to length of line (L) • These errors may be positive or negative.
