Verified step by step guidance

Understand that a bearing is a way to describe direction using angles measured clockwise from the north line. For example, the bearing 'N 70° E' means starting from the north, rotate 70 degrees towards the east.

Recall that bearings are always measured clockwise from the north direction, so 'N 70° E' corresponds to an angle of 70 degrees east of north.

To match the bearing with the correct graph, visualize or draw the angle starting from the vertical north line and rotating 70 degrees towards the right (east).

Look at each graph in Column II and identify which one shows a vector or line starting from north and rotated 70 degrees towards the east direction.

Select the graph that correctly represents this angle, ensuring the direction matches the bearing 'N 70° E' as described.

Key Concepts

Here are the essential concepts you must grasp in order to answer the question correctly.

Understanding Bearings

Bearings are a way to describe direction using angles measured clockwise from the north line. They are typically expressed in three parts: a starting cardinal direction (N or S), an angle less than 90°, and an ending cardinal direction (E or W). For example, N 70° E means starting from north, rotate 70° towards the east.

Interpreting Directional Angles on Graphs

Graphs representing bearings usually show vectors or lines originating from a point, indicating direction. Understanding how to translate a bearing like N 70° E into a graphical angle involves visualizing the angle relative to the north axis and correctly identifying the quadrant or direction on the graph.

Matching Bearings to Visual Representations

Matching bearings to graphs requires recognizing the angle's orientation and direction on the coordinate plane. This involves comparing the given bearing angle with the angle shown in the graph, ensuring the correct quadrant and direction (e.g., northeast, southwest) are matched accurately.

Textbook Question

Concept Check The two methods of expressing bearing can be interpreted using a rectangular coordinate system. Suppose that an observer for a radar station is located at the origin of a coordinate system. Find the bearing of an airplane located at each point. Express the bearing using both methods. (-4, 0)
