For items 1, and 2: A vertical parabolic curve of 260-m length has a back-tangent of -4.2% grade and a forward tangent of +3.0% which intersect at Station 11 + 488.00 with elevations 20.80 meters. a.) If cross-drainage pipes will be installed, determine the pipes' stationing. Provide the answer in kilometers e.g. 11,900 (instead of 11+900).
