22.2 The Bearing

Bearing is written as a three digit number from 000( to 360(.

The bearing of point Q from point P is the angle between the north direction through P and the line PQ, measured in a clockwise direction.a)The bearing of Q from P = 060(b)The bearing of Q from P = 130(

c)The bearing of Q from P = 250(d)The bearing of Q from P =300(
