1.The central angle of a simple curve is 38˚. If the mid point point of the curve is 13 m nearer the vertex, compute the degree of the curve. Use arc basis. 2. A simple curve having a radius of 220 m has a central angle of 40˚. How far is the midpoint of the curve nearest to vertex. * 3. Compute the central angle of a simple curve having a radius of 180 m if the distance from the midpoint of the curve nearer to the vertex is 12 m.  4. The perpendicular offset distance from a point on a simple curve to Q on the tangent line is 64 m. If the distance from the P.C. to Q on the tangent is 260 m, Compute the radius of the simple curve.
