      Bearings are expressed in two ways:

      1. Whole circle bearings (WCB)
      2. Quadrantal bearings (QB)

      Measurement of Whole circle bearing (WCB): The angle is measured with respect to the north direction in the clockwise direction and can be valued up to 360 degrees.

      Measurement of Quadrantal bearing (QB):  The angle is measured with respect to the north and the south direction in the clockwise and anti-clockwise directions and can be valued up to 90 degrees.

      Reduced bearing:  The whole circle bearing when expressed in Quadrantal bearing is known as a Reduced bearing.

      Conversion formula for WCB to QB

      (0 to 90) : same as WCB

      (90 to 180) : 180 – WCB

      (180 to 270) : WCB – 180

      (270 to 360) : 360 – WCB

      Fore and Back Bearing:

      If the fore bearing is less than 180,

      Back Bearing (BB) = Fore Bearing (FB) + 180

      If the fore bearing is greater than 180,

      Back Bearing (BB) = Fore Bearing (FB) – 180
