🔍 Key Concepts

• Relative bearing vs. true bearing and how they are measured • How to convert a relative bearing to a true bearing using the ship’s true heading • Which direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) bearings are measured from 000°

💭 Think About

• Are relative bearings measured from the ship’s bow or from true north? How about true bearings? • If a relative bearing is 270°, where is that located around the ship (ahead, astern, port beam, starboard beam)? • How do you combine (or subtract) the ship’s true heading and the relative bearing to get a true bearing, and what should you do if the result is greater than 360° or less than 000°?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that relative bearing is measured 0°–360° from the ship’s bow, clockwise. • Confirm that true bearing is measured 0°–360° from true north, clockwise. • After doing the heading +/− relative bearing calculation, be sure your final bearing is between 000° and 359° and matches one of the options.
