🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between true bearing and relative bearing • How to convert a relative bearing to a true bearing using the ship’s true course • Rule for keeping answers within 0°–359° when adding or subtracting angles

💭 Think About

• Should you add or subtract the relative bearing from your true course in this situation? Why? • If the object is seen on your port quarter, what does that say about its approximate direction relative to your ship’s heading? • After doing the math, is your answer pointing generally to the left or right of your ship’s head (027°T)? Does that match the described relative position?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm whether relative bearings are measured clockwise from the ship’s bow (0° at the bow) • Check that your final true bearing is expressed as a three‑digit value between 000° and 359° • Verify that your chosen answer places the lighthouse generally on the correct side (port or starboard) and ahead/abeam/astern based on the relative bearing of 220°
