This is probably a trigonometry problem (in the first place)
Assume 3 points in the arc of a circle are known. (the values are a bit
simplified)
(on the top of the circle)
p1 = [10, 50] // the start value
p2 = [45, 51.5] // the middle value
p3 = [100.50] // the end value
is this sufficient to calculate the other values between these points (the
y-value) in the arc of the circle?
(or do I also need to know the radius and center point of the circle
before the arc of the circle can be calculated?)
