In trigonometric leveling from point A to point B, the slope distance and the zenith angle measured in A were 2504.897 m and 85o08’54”. At B, these measurements were 2504.891 m and 94o52’10” respectively. If the instrument and rod target heights were equal, calculate the difference in elevation from A to B.
