If the value of length of the chord is given as 4m and the radius of the curve as 3.65m, find the tangential angle using Rankine’s method.

If the value of length of the chord is given as 4m and the radius of the curve as 3.65m, find the tangential angle using Rankine’s method. Correct Answer 173˚24ꞌ

The Rankine’s angle can be found out by using the formula, δ = 1718.9*C / R. On substitution, we get δ = 1718.9*4/ 39.65 δ = 173˚24ꞌ.
