    In the diagram above, AB = 10cm, angle CAB = 70 degrees and angle ABC = 34 degreesFind the bearing of B from C

    Explanation
    The bearing of B from C is 056. Bearing is a measurement used in navigation to indicate the direction of one point from another. In this case, the bearing of B from C is given as 056, which means that B is located 56 degrees clockwise from C.

    For the diagram above, the bearing of C from A is 045 degrees and the bearing of C from B is 015 degrees. AB=BC=20cm. The bearing of B from A is 075 degrees.Find the length of the line from B which is perpendicular to ACRemember to put "cm"

    Explanation
    The length of the line from B which is perpendicular to AC is 10cm. This can be determined by drawing a triangle ABC and using the given bearings and lengths. Since AB=BC=20cm and the bearing of B from A is 075 degrees, we can determine that angle ABC is 90 degrees. Therefore, the line from B which is perpendicular to AC is the same length as BC, which is 20cm.
