A simple curve has central angle of 36deg and a degree of curve of 6 deg. Find the nearest distance from the midpoint of the curve to the point of intersection of the tangents. Compute the distance from the midpoint of the curve to the midpoint of the long chord joining the point of curvature and the point of tangency. If the stationing of the point of curvature is at 10+020, compute the stationing of a point on the curve which intersects with the line making a deflection angle of 8 deg with the tangent through the P.C. (format: 00+000.00)
