Question 1764Navigation General70% to pass
You are on course 357°T and take a relative bearing of a lighthouse of 180°. What is the true bearing to the lighthouse?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 177°.
To determine the true bearing to the lighthouse, you need to add the course and the relative bearing. The course is 357°T, and the relative bearing to the lighthouse is 180°. Adding these two values gives you the true bearing of 177°.
The other options are incorrect because:
B) 227° is the sum of the course and the relative bearing, but it is not the true bearing.
C) 363° is the sum of the course and the relative bearing, but it is not the true bearing.
D) 003° is the sum of the course and the relative bearing, but it is not the true bearing.
