Approximation The bent mouth of test tube is approximated to be
:

vertical the bottom of test tube is approximated to be hemisphere

or

slightly bulging meniscus at month of test tube when it is

filled is water to the brim is to be approximated flat

Conclusion : The readings are similar , hence the above relationship is

correct.
