Question

The bearing of Measham from Tamworth is 052°
Calculate the bearing of Tamworth from Measham.

Answer 1

232°

Explanation:

1. 180-52=128

2. 360-128=232

first you subtract 52 from 180 bc you have to get the angle not included for calculating the whole bearing bc the starting point is the north line. so everything before the north line is not valid bc when you're calculating an angle like this you go from lef to to right, clockwise. in every calculation of bearings you go clockwise. next you just subtract the product you got from 360 and that's it.

hope it didn't sound too complicated.
