Two tangents converge at an angle 27.8
degrees, which were connected by a reverse
curve. The direction of the second tangent is
due to East which is having the shortest
distance to the point PRC of 126.64 meters.
What is the ratio of the shorter radius to the
longer radius in percentage if the bearing of
the common tangent is S 36.6 E. Take into
consideration that the length of the first
tangent is half the length of the second
tangent. Station PC is at Sta 10+620.
