Answer:

(a) 315°

(b) 3°

(c) 238°

Explanation:

Bearings are measured clockwise from north. The triangle described is illustrated in the attachment.

(a)

The bearing of P from R is 180° different from the bearing of R from P it will be ...

135° +180° = 315° . . . . bearing of P from R

__

(b)

The bearing of Q from R is 48° more than the bearing of P from R, so is ...

315° +48° = 363°, or 3° . . . . bearing of Q from R

__

(c)

The angle QPR has a value that makes the sum of angles in the triangle equal to 180°. It is ...

180° -48° -55° = 77°

The bearing of Q from P is 77° less than the bearing of R from P, so is ...

135° -77° = 58°

As above, the reverse bearing from Q to P is ...

58° +180° = 238° . . . . bearing of P from Q
