GCSE: How do you find the bearing of point B from A?

  1. Draw a line pointing North from point A.

  2. Use a ruler to draw a line that joins points A and B.

  3. Use a protractor to measure the angle between the line that is North of A and the line that joins A and B

This angle is called the bearing of point B from A.
