Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 12 - Question 168

If S is the length of a sub-chord and R is the radius of circular curve, the angle of deflection between the tangent and sub-chord in minutes, is equal to-

A. 573 S/R
B. 573 R/S
C. 1718.9 S/R
D. 1718.9 R/S

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 12 - Question 168 Rekin's method works on the principle that the deflection angle at a point of the circle curve is measured by the angle of the angle subtended by the arc at that point from PC. It is assumed that the arc length is approximately equal to its arc.
