General Navigation USCG Question #2193 (Set 67)

You are on course 027°T and take a relative bearing to a lighthouse of 220°. What is the true bearing to the lighthouse?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — 247°

True Bearing equals True Course plus Relative Bearing (TB = TC + RB). Adding 027°T and 220° equals 247°. When the sum exceeds 360°, subtract 360°, though here it falls directly within 0 to 360 degrees yielding 247°T.
