Introduction
Angle made in clockwise direction with
respect to the North is called a bearing.
Bearings tell is in what direction something

is.
In bearings, angles are always measured

from the North

Measuring Bearings
In this case, there are two
points given (A and B).
Q: Find the bearing of A from B
 Example 2
The same way, in this case, there are two
points given (A and B).
Q: Find the bearing of A from B
Here, the measurement of angle B is given.

Since it is angles on a line, they sum up to

180o
Therefore, 180o - 46o =134 o
The bearing of A from B

is 134 o
Example 3
Q: Find the bearing of:
-A from B
-B from A
Ans 1: 205 o
Ans 2: 25 o
 Example 4
Q: Find the bearing of P from O

Ans: 225 o
From the north

we move
clockwise and
measure the
angle formed.
