4 Two simple curves having angles of intersection of the tangents equal to 360 and 68045’ respectively are joined to form a compound curve where the PT of the first curve now becomes the PCC of the compound curve. If the length of the chord of the first curve is 472.14 m. and the length of the chord of the second curve is 235. 21 m., find the length of the long chord from the PC to the new compound curve.

4 Two simple curves having angles of intersection of the tangents equal to 360 and
68045’ respectively are joined to form a compound curve where the PT of the first curve now
becomes the PCC of the compound curve. If the length of the chord of the first curve is
472.14 m. and the length of the chord of the second curve is 235. 21 m., find the length of
the long chord from the PC to the new compound curve.
