The tangents of a simple curve have bearings of N 75°12’ E and S 78°36’ E respectively. A three-degree curve is constructed using the tangents. Determine the following: angle of intersection, radius of the curve (arc and chord bases), length of curve, chord distance, tangent distance, middle ordinate and external distance. Use arc basis in computing distances.
