Question
Given the compound curve with the vertex V inaccessible, angles A and B are equal to 16°20' and 13°30',
respectively. Stationing at B is at 1+125. 92m. Degrees of curve are 3°30' and 4°00' for the first and second curve,
respectively. It is desired to substitute the compound curve with a simple curve that shall be tangent to the two tangents,
TA and Tg, and as well as the common tangent TAB. Determine the radius of the simple curve and the station the New P.C.
and the old P.T.
