In the construction of railroads, curvature of the track is measured in the following way. First a 100.0-ft-long chord is measured. Then the curvature is reported as the angle subtended by two radii at the endpoints of the chord. (The angle is measured by determining the angle between two tangents 100.0 ft apart; since each tangent is perpendicular to a radius, the angles are the same.) In modern railroad construction, track curvature is kept below 1.30°. What is the radius of curvature of a “1.30° curve”?
