Consider that line A to C is the back tangent and C to E is the forward tangent of the compound curve. Point B is located in the first vertex and D is in the second vertex. The distance of B to C is 112.8 meters and A to B is two third the distance of point B to D. Solve for total length of the curve from A to E in meters.
