BEARING AND DISTANCE TO CO-ORDINATES

Input data
Co-ordinate of station east; E = 75.000 m
Co-ordinate of station north; N = 100.000 m
Distance along bearing; L = 275.000 m
Bearing to target; 270 degrees 0 minutes 0 seconds
Bearing = 270.000 deg
Calculations
Calculate change in east co-ordinate; E = L  cos(Bearing – 90 deg) = -275.000 m
Co-ordinate of target east; ETarget = E + E = -200.000 m
Calculate change in north co-ordinate; N = L  sin(Bearing + 90 deg) = 0.000 m
Co-ordinate of target north; NTarget = N + N = 100.000 m
