Xn = Xn-1 + Rn (sin 2n - sin 2n-1)
Yn = Yn-1 + Rn (cos 2n-1 - cos 2n)
Note: 2n, Xn, and Yn are used herein to designate
angles and offset distances from the T.S.C. to the
points of compound curvature only. They are not used
to designate angles or offsets to any arbitrary point
on the transition curve.
Complete
The tangent distance for the complete curve is:
