A man walks 100 m due West from a point X to Y, he then…

A man walks 100 m due West from a point X to Y, he then walks 100 m due North to a point Z. Find the bearing of X from Z.
  • A.
    195o
  • B.
    135o
  • C.
    225o
  • D.
    045o
Correct Answer: Option B

tan(theta) = (frac{100}{100}) = 1
(theta) = tan-1(1) = 45o
The bearing of x from z is N45oE or 135o
