Which consequence results when an 18th-century quadrat fails in a mariner's quadrant during celestial navigation?

💡 Explanation

Inaccurate latitude determination happens due to parallax error increase when the quadrat warps; the reading uses *angular measurement*, because the quadrat’s angles become unreliable. Therefore, latitude becomes wrong, rather than compass issues or rudder failing.
