Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer to the diagram attached. The dashed segment attached to points to the north. Rotating this segment clockwise with point
as the fixed center of rotation would eventually align this segment with the one between point
and point
. The bearing of point
from point
is the size of the angle between these two line segments when measured in the clockwise direction.
Subtract the bearing of from
from the bearing of
from
to find the measure of the angle
:
.
Thus, triangle is a right triangle (
) with segment
as the hypotenuse. It is given that
whereas
. Thus, by Pythagorean's Theorem:
.
