A reversed curve with diverging tangents is to pass through three ines to form a center line of a proposed road. The first line AB has a bearing of N. 88 É. and a distance of 120 m., BC has a bearing of N. 62' E., and a distance of 340 m., while that of CD has a bearing of S. 40 E. and a dis tance of 300 m. f the first tängent has a distance of only 1/4 that of the common tangent measured from the point of intersection of the first curve. O Compute the radius of the first curve. Compute the radius of the second curve. O Compute the stationing of the P.T. If P.C. is at station 12 + 340.

Question
Transcribed Image Text:A reversed curve with diverging tangents is to
pass through three lines to form a center line of
a proposed road. The first line AB has a
bearing of N. 88*É. and a distance of 120 m.,
BC has a bearing of N. 62' E., and a distance
of 340 m., while that of CD has a bearing of
S. 40' E. and a distance of 300 m. f the first
tangent has a distance of only 1/4 that of the
common tangent measured from the point of
intersection of the first curve.
O Compute the radius of the first curve.
2 Compute the radius of the second curve.
O Compute the stationing of the P.T. If P.C.
is at station 12 + 340.
