In this method the slope of the ground is first found out by using the clinometer or abney level

Hypotenusal allowance is then made for each tape length

enter image description here

$Θ$ - angle of slope measured by clinometer or abney level $AB=AB_1=20m=100\ LINK$ $AC=AB \sec Θ =100\sec Θ$ \begin{align} \\B_1C &=AC – AB_1 \\&=100 \sec Θ – 100 \\& =100(\sec Θ-1) \end{align} The amount $100(\sec Θ -1)$ is said to be hypotenusal allowance
