Two tangents of a simple curve have azimuths of 248°15’ and 294°30’ are connected by 4.2° curve. If station V is at 7 + 196.25, compute the other elements of the curve.
- The radius of the curve.
- The external distance of the curve.
- The middle ordinate of the curve.
- The distance at a point P on the curve to the vortex is 10° and it makes an angle between the tangents is 40°. Find the radius of the simple curve through the point P which will unite the given tangents.
