Question

A) Calculate the size of angle x in the diagram

below.
b) Work out the bearing of A from B.

Answer 1

The size of the angle x is 98° . The bearing of A from B is 262°

From the diagram given;

82 + x = 180° (same side interior angles)

x = 180 - 82

x = 98°

The bearing of A from B is ;

since 98° belongs to the 4th quadrant, The bearing of A from B would be ;

• 360° - 98° =

Hence, the bearing of A from B is 262°
