Answer:

The correct answer is Magnetic Declination

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the angle on the horizontal plane that is in the middle of north and geographic north. A compass point in the direction of the magnetic north inteasd of the true north. If the truth north is wanted to be read, then a change is gonna happen adding the magnetic declination to reading to get to the true north.
