Question 1153698: From a place 400 m north of X, a student walks eastwards to a place Y which 800m from X. What is the bearing of X from Y? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Draw this. It is a 1-sqrt(3)- 2 30-60-90 right triangle
Angle Y is 30 degrees and it is 30 degrees south of due west, so the bearing is 240 degrees.
