Bearing is an angle that states the direction of one position from another. Compass direction
Bearing must be

(1) in three-digit form,
(2) measured in a clockwise direction and
(3) measured from the north.

However, in this section of the chapter, we will look into
calculating the bearing a position from another position rather
than drawing and measuring the bearing by accurate drawing.
