How to calculate this one?

Y = x^3/6RL.

For maximum perpendicular offset x = L = 90 m.

So Y = 90^3/6*500*90 = 2.70 m.

Perpendicular offset from a tangent to the junction of a transition curve and a circular curve is equal = 4 times the shift.
So, P=4s=4*(L^2/24R)=L^2/6R=90^2/(6*500)=2.70m.

l^2/6R=90^2/6*500 = 2.70M.

Why you put 6?

R =24 or R =6 can anybody solve it properly?

Shift S = L^2/24R.
Perpendicular offset = 4 x Shift=4 x (L^2/24R).
= L^2/6R.
= 90x90/6* 500 = 2.7m.
