Versine of curve
The versine is the perpendicular distance of the midpoint of a chord from the arc of a circle.
The relationship between radius and versine of a curve in various units is shown below:
\(V = \frac{{{C^2}}}{{8R}}\) .............(V, C, R are in same units, say, m or cm)
\(V = \frac{{125{C^2}}}{R}\) ......... (V in mm, C in m, and R in m)
\(V = \frac{{1.5{C^2}}}{R}\)...........(C and R in feet and V in inches)
where,
V = Versine of curve
C = Length of chord
R = Radius of curve
