How do you find the line bearing?

Bearings of lines may be calculated if bearing of one of the lines and the included angles measured clockwise between the various lines are given. Bearing of a line = given bearing + included angle.

How do you calculate bearing distance?

Here is the formula to find the second point, when first point, bearing and distance is known:

  1. latitude of second point = la2 = asin(sin la1 * cos Ad + cos la1 * sin Ad * cos θ), and.
  2. longitude of second point = lo2 = lo1 + atan2(sin θ * sin Ad * cos la1 , cos Ad – sin la1 * sin la2)

What is difference between bearing and angle?

As nouns the difference between angle and bearing



is that angle is (senseid)(geometry) a figure formed by two rays which start from a common point (a plane angle) or by three planes that intersect (a solid angle) while bearing is a mechanical device that supports another part and/or reduces friction.
