Q1:

The angle of intersection of a curve is the angle between

A back tangent and forward tangent

B prolongation of back tangent and forward tangent

C forward tangent and long chord

D back tangent and long chord.

ANS:A - back tangent and forward tangent

Prolongation of back tangent and forward tangent is called deflection angle. So the given answer is right. Because after extending, the backward and forward tangent got the point of the intersection of curve.
