You are on course 180°T and take a relative bearing of a lighthouse of 225°. What is the true bearing of the lighthouse?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 045°.
To determine the true bearing of the lighthouse, we need to add the relative bearing (225°) to the course (180°T). The true bearing is calculated by adding these two values, which results in 045°.
The other options are incorrect because:
A) 135° is the opposite of the relative bearing.
B) 270° is 90° to the right of the course.
D) 180° is the opposite of the course direction.
