The Maths Prof: Calculate Bearings

How to find bearings when the diagram is not to scale (i.e you can't use a protractor to measure them!). Tip: Brush up on your knowledge of corresponding angles on parallel lines to make these bearings questions easier! For Bearings Exam Questions please see my other lesson • The Maths Prof: Calcul...

I started doing bearing probably when I was in the 8th grade, I somehow passed my O levels without understanding absolutely anything about bearings, none of the teachers I had could explain this and now im doing my A levels and its the first time after watching your videos that I truly understood. Something that my teachers couldnt do in so many years you did it in just a few minutes. You truly are a real math prof!!! :-)

I learnt more about this in a 10 minute TH-cam video than I have in hours of math class

[@kelseyborg7333]

I have a test coming soon , so long ago this video happened but luckily still posted !! I couldn’t understand a tad bit but you could actually do the trick to teach this may have taken other teachers full lessons whilst u made me understand by the first questions of the video truly amazing ,😊

[@samira8485]

I'm in 9th grade and I'm going to sit for my o levels examination in June 2023. I had been very demotivated since few days because I wasn't understanding few chapters which includes bearing. Now, I finally understood it. Thanks to you. I also feel motivated that I can do it❤❤

I’m also pretty sure that I go to the same school where you teach, so if I ever get to be in your class, I will be very glad.

[@rileytimbrell648]

Im in year 8, this came up on one of my baseline tests (if you dont know what it is, at the start of every term we get a test with things our teacher isnt sure we know and depending on what the majority of the class gets wrong thats what will be taught) the bearing question was the only question i got wrong. Thanks for explaining, ive looked at many videos and photos but yours just made sense. Thank you so much

[@e-wame]

Thank you so much ! I've done this like a year ago and failed the test but I never understood it so I didn't try it again but I have my exam and I understood totally nothing. I was explained this in a different way this is MUCH more better, I can actually understand what happened.
P.S. : I adore your speaking skills, you're calm and your voice isnt speaking to fast or slow and its understandable feel free to give tips 😭

[@walubitajohn6177]

you are the best teacher have ever seen

[@ropataparaone5571]

As a Pilot I skip a couple steps here....Eg: A to B its 60 degrees RIGHT to B.
So if I'm Flying a heading of NORTH on 000 and B was @ 60 degrees to my right I would go:
HEADING = 000 + RELATIVE BEARING = DIRECTION TO FEATURE which is 060. (000+060) = 060.
Therefore: To find a bearing from B back to my current position I would go 060 + 180 = 240 degrees. Just another small variation, cuts out the drawing. This was easy as 060 is above the 270-090 E/W line which is feature B so the reciprocal of 060 (180 Tail of 060) logically sits to the S/W of the E/W line so that confirms the calculation makes sense. Nice video!
