Text Appearing Before Image:
common to both. Suppose R to be the point in the first curve, and S the point inthe second. There being obstructions in the way, we will run thezigzag line R L P S, making R L tangent to R, and P S tangei.ttoS. Suppose R L Q — 20°and TPS=:15°; let R L r= 1100 feet, L P = 1300, and P S = 1400.Assume radius N R as a meridian; that is, suppose N R to bedue north. Then will R L be due west, LP south 70° west, PSsouth 85° west, and radius S M north 5° west. These artificialcourses, then, will show the relative bearings, with which we obtainthe following traverse: Course. Distance. Northinff. Southing. Easting. Westing. North . .West . .

Therefore continue the curve from R towards A, 9° 10 of curva-ture, and we have the tangent point A required. Again, we haveS M I = 39
