We need

  • m<NXY

Angles are supplementary

  • m<NXY+106=180
  • m<NXY=180-106
  • m<NXY=74

Answer:

74°

Explanation:

A bearing is an angle, measured clockwise from the north direction.

To find the bearing of Y from X:

  • Start at point X
  • Measure clockwise from north to the line going to point Y.

Angles on a straight line sum to 180°

⇒ bearing of Y from X = 180° - 106°

= 74°
