The PC of the reversed curve is on the upper tangent while the PT of the reversed curve is at the lower tangent. This curve is to connect two tangents with directions of due east and parallel to each other and are 300 m apart. There is an intermediate tangent of 250 m in between the reversed curve and the horizontal of the PC and PT measured parallel to the tangents is 1000 m long. Compute the station of the PT if the PC is at station 8 + 180.
