    This document discusses bearing angles and trigonometry. It provides three key steps to sketch a bearing angle from an observer to an object: 1) draw a north line from the observer, 2) draw a line joining the observer to the object, and 3) measure the bearing angle clockwise from north to the line joining the observer and object. It also describes how to find the back bearing from an object to an observer by adding or subtracting 180 degrees to the original bearing depending on whether it is less than or greater than 180 degrees. Finally, it reviews how to calculate the area of a triangle using 1/2 ab sin C.

    Bearing: is an angle used by the observer to locate an object by drawing this angle from the NORTH to the line
    joining the observer to the object

    Angle of Bearing of B from A ….. steps

    1st. Draw NORTH line from A


    2nd. Draw a line joining from A to B
    3rd. Measure BEARING angle from the NORTH to the line AB (CLOCKWISE)

    Bearing of B from A is …….

    Back Bearing is the bearing from B to A which is ………

    If bearing <180 Back Bearing = Bearing + 180o

    If bearing >180 Back Bearing = Bearing - 180o

    EX : bearing of A from B is 054o , find the bearing of B from A.

    EX : bearing of A from B is 205o , find the bearing of B from A.
