The highway engineer of a certain road construction decided to use a radius of 110m in laying out a simple curve having an angle of intersection of 38 degree 25 minute. The stationing of the vertex is 33 + 098.98. After verifying the actual conditions of the proposed route, it was found out that the PT should be moved out in a parallel tangent having a perpendicular distance of 12.50m with the angle of intersection remaining the same, while the curve shall have the same PC. Compute the following with the use of 3 decimal places: -new tangent distance -new curve radius -stationing of the new PT
