BEARINGS

N
Find the bearing of B from A
In this case the two give points are A & B

Since it says from A that were we need to draw the A


north line (the north line is just a line that is extents
from the given point towards the north direction)
B

You should take your protractor and make


90 degrees in a clockwise direction

(make sure your measuring upwards),


You should then measure until it reaches point A
The angle that you just measured is called a
bearing
Lets look at this example
find the bearing of B from A, as you can
see the north line from A , it is already
drawn, so all we need to do is place the
protractor till it reaches A

Once you have


measured you should
get 94 °, but that's not
the final answer, since
its a straight line we
need to add 180,
180+94 = 274°
