A ship is 45 miles east and 25 miles south of a port.
The captain wants to sail directly to the port.
What bearing should be taken?
tan Ө = 45/25 = 9/5
arc tan 1.8 = 60.95°
The bearing to be taken is N60.95⁰W.

tan Ө = 25 / 45 = 5 / 9
Ө = 29⁰
Required return bearing is 299⁰

tan T = y/x = -25/45
T = inv tan(-25/45) = -29.05 deg. << this is a trig angle

270 + 29.05 = 299.05 deg <<< answer
