Within Al-Khwarizmi's algebraic methods for distributing land, which outcome arises when surveying errors compound?

A)Equitable plot size deviations
B)Correct quadratic equation resolution
C)Increased trigonometric function precision
D)Inaccurate geometric progression calculation

💡 Explanation

Linear surveying used 'ilm al-misaha' to divide land, so error propagation results in unequal division because measurement inaccuracies feed into the algebraic calculations. Therefore, the plot sizes deviate, rather than the algorithms becoming demonstrably more precise or accurate.
