(a) Two straights, AI and IA, whose bearings are 50 and 85 respectively intersect at I, are to be connected by a combined curve. The chainage of I is 6634 metres while its coordinates are (52388.75m N,39892.29m E). The design speed and radius have been fixed at 75kmh and 350m respectively. Adopting a rate of change of acceleration of 0.3ms3, prepare the setting out table (to nearest cm) for the FIRST transition only at 20m intervals.

(b) During setting out, it was found out that the location of the first running tangent (Ti) is obstructed and not accessible. Supposing that the curve could be set out from I, calculate the required bearings and distances from I of the first four points on the FIRST transition.
