A survey reading is taken between two points. The point of origin has coordinates of 100.0m easting, 500.0m northing. The coordinates of the new station are 520.84422m easting, 175.66614m northing. What is the bearing in degrees from the origin to the new point?
ORIGIN=100 E.....AND......500 N
STATION=520.8442 E..........175.66614 N
TAN(BEARING)=(500-175.66614)/(100-520.8442)
BEARING ANGLE=-0.6566 RADIANS=-37.64 DEG.
