Can anyone give me an idea where the line would be that splits this 10 acre tract into a 7 and 3 acre tracts? I want the beginning to start 30' to the left of the concrete r/w monument on state route A and go to the back line. The measurement from the r/w monument to the pin on the left side of the 308.30 line on the back is 575' if that helps. Thanks.
I understand why my counterparts are trying to make a point to get it surveyed. With that I totally agree. However, you did say you want an idea. Good news is your exhibit calculates out to 10 acres within reason and the distances and bearings harmonize reasonably well. I agree?ÿ that the calculated distance of the "measured" 575 ft. distance is 560.65 ft. Perhaps that is a distance along the ground surface and not a plumb horizontal distance. Assuming "left" being in a westerly direction the answer is 170 ft. easterly or "right" from the westerly or "left" pin along the noted 308.3 line measured plumb on a horizontal plane- not along the ground. There is your idea. Now as has been mentioned call a surveyor to establish the split. BTW this information is worth what you paid for it.?ÿ

I like how the north/south lines are parallel, that looks good. The 3 doesn't matter to me as much as the 7. Thanks.
acres are rounding off to 0.00 acre (3.00 and 7.00) while sq ft values are rounding off to 0.00000023 acre (2.9959233 and 6.9966104).?ÿ I won't tell anyone that you're shorting them 0.0075 acre in the deal and, guaranteed, anyone else doing this will give you a slightly different answer.?ÿ I'd probably go with the most expensive one 🙂
Thank all of you for your help and advice. I was never going to self survey this property but just wanted an idea of the line. There is a survey crew out here surveying an ajoining property and I will get them to divide this the right way legally. I'm a builder/carpenter with 30 years experience but I know my limitations. I'm not a surveyor, most of your terms pertaining to surveying are baffling to me. I'll never be a surveyor nor be able to create a document that is about surveying. Nor do I have any interest in trying. I truly appreciate your help and will post again when this is official and stamped by a registered land surveyor. Thanks again.
After Dave Drahn posted his nice drawing I pulled this problem out of my trash can and finished it. ( I stopped calculating on the problem when I calculated as others did a distance of 560.65 feet between 2 points that Ozarkbuilded said it was 575 feet. Also one poster said that there was a 5 foot bust in closing coord.)
So I do get a difference between the tangent bearing of N 80 17 E of 28 seconds; but that does round down to 17 minutes as is shown on the plat. That makes an error in closing of about 0.01 feet (no big deal). The method used to get the 3 acre as requested is still the same (if not using a computer, which I did not use). I numbered the points on the plat counterclockwise starting form the Conc. R/W monument (which I also call the P.O.B. or point #1). So from point #1 to point #6 i get by inverse 560.646. ( Oh I used at the POB starting coordinates of N 2000.0000?ÿ E 1000.0000). After I pulled it out of the trash to finish it I came back on the arc of the curve 30 feet (as requested by the 1st poster to be his POB for his area of 3 acre). I moved on line between point #6 to point #5 and calculated the area till it get to 3 acre (distance left out for obvious reasons) It took me 8 iterations to get the answer (all done using a HP20S calculator and no programming steps; NOT too old school because I could have used logarithms to solve the whole problem--- Now that would be old school).
Question for all posters: I tried to print this out but come up missing some stuff; like on the very 1st page it prints the plat but NOT the posters wording under his post.?ÿ?ÿHOW DO I PRINT ALL OUT?ÿ(Thanks in advance)
I'm not the most sophisticated user, but I usually either copy the picture and paste it into Paint or save it and open it in Paint. That gives me control over its printed size and I just print it from Paint.
Then I copy and paste the text into a word processor or a text editor and print it on a separate page. I like having text and drawing on different pages, but that's just me.
You can copy and paste both the picture and the text into a word processor page and print it as one page, if it comfortably fits. That means that a readable picture that is not too small to fit along with the text on one page.
There are a host of ways to do this, but what you want at the end is both a drawing and text that you can actually work with.
The only way before your post is I would take a picture of the screen with my phone (you know the new style of phone) then send it to my computer and then print it out.
MathTeacher; Thank you very much for the answer, hope all is well with you and family.
