Guy: Perhaps you can share your calculations? I worked this problem and my position lines for the Moon, Venus, and Kochab form a very tight triangle symmetrically inside a slightly larger triangle for Altair, Alpheratz, and Raselhague. This gives me 40 03 N, 153 09 W. The book gives the answer 40 01 N, 153 09 W. I calculated my results using Excel spreadsheets of my own design and checked the azimuths using Pub 229.
