What is the formula for calculating tangent length?
Think about the relationship between angle and tangent.
Define the Point of Intersection.
Consider it in the context of a circular curve.
What is the formula for Length of Curve?
Think about how arcs are calculated.
True or False: The PI is where two tangents intersect.
Consider where paths would meet.
A curve has a radius of 500 m with a deflection angle of 30°. Calculate the Length of Curve and provide the Chainage if the PI is at 1000 m.
Use the formulas we've discussed to guide your calculations.
If a radius of 300 m and a PI at 1200 m are given, but you also have a deflection angle of 45 degrees, what's the tangent length and the chainage at point T?
Don’t forget to apply the right formulas carefully!
