In Conclusion - Bearings
Recognise 90º, 180º, 270º. A bearing is used to represent the direction of one point relative to another point. For example, the bearing of point P is 065º, measured in a clockwise direction from the north line to the line joining the centre of the compass at O with the point P (i.e. OP). The bearing of point Q is 300º which is the number of degrees in the angle measured in a clockwise direction from the north line to the line joining the centre of the compass at O with the point Q (i.e. OQ). N 245° N 065° Now, what is the bearing of the wharf from the yacht? What is the bearing of the yacht from the wharf?
