Bearings

A bearing is a 3-digit angle (for example, 132º, 087º, 315, etc.) from 0º to 360º. It is measured clockwise from the North.

In the following example, we can say that the bearing of B from A is 120º because if we begin from A, the angle measured clockwise from the North is 120º. Similarly, the bearing of A from B is 300º, because if we begin from B, the angle measured clockwise from the North is 300º.
