Q1: A bearing of a line is also known asA
magnetic bearing
B
true bearing
C
azimuth
D
reduced bearing
ANS:B - true bearing Yes, the correct answer is B, because the instrument which we have to measure the bearings are magnetic/prismatic compass nt true meridian or something else.
Because, if angle of bearing is magnetic bearing, then it's vairry according to time due to change of declination, in this question only mention that angle of bearing, not measured angle of bearing.
Magnetic bearing is right, A bearing of a line is called magnetic bearing. It is a horizontal angle measured with magnetic meridian.
True bearing is measured from true meridian (true north and true south). |
