You have designed a 500 ft long simple horizontal curve that has an intersection angle of 45 degrees. The PC is located at station 6+30 ft. 26. Is the shape of the simple horizontal curve circular, elliptic, or parabolic? 27. What is the radius (ft) of the curve? 28. What is the degree of curvature? 29. What is the stationing (ft) for the PT? 30. What is the distance (ft) along the roadway from the PC to the first full station, 1₁? 31. What angle is subtended by the roadway from the PC to the first full station, 8₁ 32. What is the distance (ft) along the roadway from one full station to the next full station, lD? 33. What angle is subtended by the roadway from one full station to the next full station, 8p? 34. What is the distance (ft) from the last full station to the PT, 12? 35. What angle is subtended by the roadway from the last full station to the PT, 82? 36. What is the chord length (ft) from the PC to the PT?
