Two converging tangents have azimuths (from the south) of 250° and 120°, respectively, while that of the common tangent is 310°. The distance from the point of intersection of the tangents to the PI of the second curve is 276m while the stationing of the PI of the second curve is 6+120.5. If the radius of the first curve is 410m, determine the stationing of the PC, the PRC and the PT.
