Module 3 Part 1

1. The document provides information about surveying simple and compound curves. It includes 7 questions about calculating curve elements like radius, degree of curve, stationing of points of curvature, tangency, and compound curves. 2. Questions ask to determine curve radius, middle ordinate, external distance, degree of curve, stationing of points, and angles between tangents and compound curve long chords. 3. The questions provide curve data like central angle, offset distances, stationing of points, bearing and distances between points, radii, and lengths to calculate unknown curve elements.
