An unsymmetrical parabolic curve has a forward tangent of -8% and a back tangent of +5%. The length of curve on the left side of the curve is 40m long while that of the right side is 60m long. The PC is at station 6 + 780 and has an elevation of 110m. An outcrop is found at station 6 + 800 has an elevation of 108.40m. A. Compute the height of fill needed to cover the outcrop. B. Compute the elevation of curve at station 6 + 820. C. Compute the elevation of the highest point of the curve.
