What would be the back azimuth of 265 degrees?
85 degrees (provided the distance is not more than a few miles).
What direction is 265.93 degree azimuth?
It's 4.07 degrees south of West.
How many degrees does a straight line measure?
180 degrees
How many degrees in one angle of a decagon?
144 degrees. from the triangle (180 degrees) to find the degrees of shapes with one more side, add 180 degrees. e.g. triangle (3 sides) - 180 degrees quadrilateral (4 sides) - 180 + 180 = 360 degrees
How many dergress does a hexagon have?
You mean: How many degrees does a hexagon have? 180 degrees for every side added after a triangle. Therefore, 180+180+180+180= 720 DEGREES
What is a back azimuth?
A BACK AZIMUTH IS A PROJECTION OF THE AZIMUTH FROM THE ORIGIN TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE AZIMUTH CIRCLE. i.e. THERE ARE 360 DEGREES IN AN AZIMUTH CIRCLE, THUS THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION IS 180 DEGREES.
What is the back azimuth of 223 degrees?
As the request is for the back azimuth, then what is wanted is the reverse (or inverse) of the azimuth, 223 degrees. In other words, an object moved in the direction of 223 degrees (Southwest relatively), but now the desire is to reverse the travel in order to arrive at the starting point. (That starting point would have to be Northeast relatively.) One does not typically work with directions exceeding 360 degrees nor less than 0 degrees as that range is the range of a compass. Therefore, the back azimuth of 223 degrees, whatever it is, must be between zero and 360 degrees. To determine the back azimuth all that is necessary is the knowledge that 1) the back azimuth is the opposite direction of the azimuth and 2) 180 degrees either added or subtracted will yield the back azimuth, and 3) the correct back azimuth must be in the range of zero to 360 degrees. Given this knowledge and the variable definitions Ab = Back Azimuth and A = Azimuth, Ab = A + 180 or Ab = A - 180 But which equation yields the correct back azimuth? Using knowledge point #3 above, the correct result will be the one that is between zero and 360 degrees. Therefore, Ab = A - 180 = 223 - 180 = 43 degrees is the correct back azimuth. The other choice, Ab = A + 180 = 223 + 180 = 403 degrees, exceeds the range of the compass, so 403 degrees cannot be the correct back azimuth.
What is the formula for determining a back azimuth if the azimuth is more than 180 degrees?
If it is greater than 180, subtract 180 (270 degrees - 180 = 90 Degrees). If it is less than 180, add 180 (40 Degrees + 180 = 220 Degrees) Now the question is, what is the formula that will do this in MS Excel?
What is the back azimuth of 168 degrees?
348 degrees. It is the exact opposite on a compass dial. 168 is 12 degrees before due south, so the back azimuth is 12 degrees before due north.
Where in the sky would a star with an azimuth of 180 degrees and an altitude of 20 degrees be found?
due south and slightly above the horizon
Where in the sky would a star with azimuth of 180 degrees and an altitude of 20 degrees be found?
due south and slightly above the horizon
What is the back azimuth of 94 degrees?
Nominally 274 degrees. But on the real, spherical earth, the farther north you are, and the farther apart the two points are, the more the true back-azimuth will depart from 274 degrees.
How do you convert magnetic azimuth to grid azimuth?
To convert a magnetic azimuth to grid azimuth, subtract G-M angle.” If you have a magnetic azimuth of 270 degrees, and the G-M angle is 8 degrees, your grid azimuth will be 262 degrees.
What is the azimuth and altitude of the star Betelgeuse?
azimuth 100 degrees altitude 20 degrees
What is azimuth degrees?
An azimuth is defined as a horizontal angle measured clockwise from a north base line. This north base line could be true north, magnetic north, or grid north. The azimuth is the most common military method to express direction. When using an azimuth, the point from which the azimuth originates is the center of an imaginary circle . This circle is divided into 360 degrees or 6400 mils . NORTH IS 0/360 AZIMUTH EAST IS 90. SOUTH IS 180. WEST IS 270.
What would be the back azimuth of 265 degrees?
85 degrees (provided the distance is not more than a few miles).
What is the approximate azimuth and elevation of Venus just before it sets?
Azimuth about 270 degrees. That's due West. Elevation (or altitude) about 5 degrees. That's just above the horizon. Venus is always fairly near the Sun in the sky. The Sun sets roughly in the West. Amongst other things, the actual azimuth would depend on time of year and different latitude, of course. I've used the convention for azimuth of North 0 or 360 degrees, West 270 degrees, South 180 degrees, East 90 degrees. There are other conventions.
