The bearing of lines a and b are 16â° 10` and 332â° 18`, the value of the included angle boa is:
a. 316â° 10`
b. 158â° 28`
c. 348â° 08`
d. 43â° 52`

D. 43° 52`  

Explanation:

A bearing is an angle, measured clockwise from the north direction. When solving a bearing problem, it is good to represent the bearings in the given question with diagram.

The diagrammatically representation of the bearing of lines A and B, 16° 10` and 332° 18` respectively given in the question is shown in the figure attached.

At Point A, we will calculate angle ∠BAO.

Calculating the angle ∠BAO

∠BAO = 90° - 16° 10`

          = 73° 50`

At Point B, we will calculate angle ∠ABO.

Calculating the angle ∠ABO

∠ABO = 332° 18` - 270° 0`

          = 62° 18`

At Point O, we will calculate the include angle ∠BOA.

Calculating the angle ∠BOA

∠BAO + ∠ABO + ∠BOA = 180°  (sum of angles in a triangle)

73° 50` + 62° 18` + ∠BOA = 180°

136° 8` + ∠BOA = 180°

∠BOA = 180° - 136° 8`

∠BOA = 43° 52`

The value of the included angle BOA is 43° 52

the entire statement is true and correct.  

there's no diagram, nothing is illustrated, and no question is asked.
