X is due east point of y on a coast. Z is another point on the coast but 6.0km due south of Y. If the distance ZX is 12km, calculate the bearing of Z from X
A. 240°
B. 150°
C. 60°
D. 270°
Correct Option: Answer is A
Solution
Sinθ = 6/12
Sinθ = 1/2
θ = Sin0.5
θ = 30°
Bearing of Z from X, (270 – 30)° = 240°
