Matthew is facing towards town A, which is at a bearing of 300° from him. If he turns 115° clockwise, he will be facing towards town B. What is the bearing of town B from Matthew?​

To decide the bearing of town B from Matthew, we want to feature the clockwise turn Matthew makes to the bearing of metropolis A from Matthew.

Matthew is first of all going through metropolis A at a bearing of 300°. If he turns one hundred fifteen° clockwise, we can upload this perspective to the initial bearing.

Bearing of metropolis B from Matthew = Bearing of city A from Matthew + Clockwise turn

Bearing of town B from Matthew = three hundred° + 115°

Bearing of city B from Matthew = 415°

Therefore, the bearing of town B from Matthew is 415°.
