Question

what compass heading represents 20° east of south?
?°
hint: compass headings are measured from north, going clockwise.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall compass heading basics

Compass headings start at north (0°) and go clockwise. South is 180° from north.

Step2: Adjust for east of south

East of south means we add 20° to the south heading. So, \( 180^\circ + 20^\circ = 200^\circ \).

Answer:

\( 200 \)
