Please solve for A, B, and C. Thank you so much!

A 5° curve intersects a property line CD at a point D. The back tangent
intersects the property line at point C which is 108.27 m from PC which is at
station 2 + 040. The angle that the property line CD makes with the back
tangent is 110°30'.
a. Compute the length of the curve from the P.C. to the point of intersection of
the line from the center of the curve to the point C and the curve.
b. Determine the distance CD.
c. Determine the stationing of point D.
