The azimuth from south of tangent from PC to PI is 210° and PI to PT is 315°. The central angle of the first curve is 48°30' and the tangent of the first curve measures one third of the distance V1 to V2. The distance V1 to V2 is known as 450 meters. Determine the radius of the first curve in meters.
