Question

A plane is heading in a direction of 045 degress and changes course in a clockwise direction to 135 degrees. The angle though which the plane turn is?

​

Answer 1

Answer: 90 degrees clockwise

Subtract the angles to get the answer

135 - 045 = 90

In terms of compass bearings, 045 degrees is directly pointed at northeast while 135 degrees is pointed directly at southeast. We have 0 degrees pointed straight north.
