The bearing of lines OA, OB, OC, and OD are 45°15′, 123°30′,216’45’, and 320°00′ respectively. and the included angles∠AOB ,∠BOC,∠COD and ∠DOA

The bearing of lines OA, OB, OC, and OD are 45°15′, 123°30′,216’45’, and 320°00′ respectively. and the included angles∠AOB ,∠BOC,∠COD and ∠DOA

solution:

∠AOB= Bearing OB – bearing OA

= 123°30′ – 45°15′

= 78°15′

∠ BOC = Bearing of OC – Bearing of OB

= 216°45′ – 123°30′

= 93°15′

∠ COD = Bearing of OD  – Bearing of OC

= 320°00′- 216°45′

= 103°15′

∠ DOA = [ (360° – bearing of OD ) + bearing of OA]

= [ (360° – 320°)+ 45°15′ ]

= 85°15′

check:

Sum of the interior angles should be 360°

∠ AOB +∠ BOC +∠ COD +∠ DOA

= 78° 15′ +93°15′ + 103°15′ +85°15′

= 360°
