What is the compass course of a vessel heading ENE?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 067.5°.
The compass course of a vessel heading ENE (East-Northeast) is 067.5°. This is because the cardinal directions (N, E, S, W) are 90° apart, and the inter-cardinal directions (NE, SE, SW, NW) are 45° apart. Therefore, the compass course for a vessel heading ENE, which is midway between East (90°) and Northeast (45°), is 067.5°.
The other options are incorrect because: A) 022.5° is too far north, B) 045.0° is Northeast, and D) 090.0° is due East, which is not the correct compass course for a vessel heading ENE.
