4 - A circular curve has the following properties. External distance is 18 m. angle of intersection of tangents is 38°30’. Stationing of vertex V (intersecting of the tangents) is 10+252.32. A line MK intersects the forward tangent at M and the circular curve at K. Point M is 12.32 m. from V and the angle VMK is 45°30’. Find the radius of the curve. Find the distance MK. Find the stationing of K.
