To input a negative bearing into a compass, first convert the negative bearing into a positive angle by adding 360 degrees (if necessary) to bring it within the 0-360 degree range. For example, a bearing of -30 degrees becomes 330 degrees. Then, align the compass to this positive angle, using the compass housing to set the desired bearing. Finally, use the compass to navigate according to the adjusted angle.
A compass bearing of 270 degrees indicates a direction due west. In navigational terms, this means that if you were to face 270 degrees, you would be looking directly toward the west horizon. This bearing is commonly used in navigation and orienteering to specify directions.
The direction SSW (South-Southwest) is represented by a 3-figure bearing of 202 degrees. This bearing indicates a direction that is halfway between south (180 degrees) and southwest (225 degrees), specifically 22.5 degrees west of south.
Half of 225 degrees is calculated by dividing 225 by 2, which equals 112.5 degrees.

The compass bearing of south is 180 degrees
A bearing of 450 degrees on a compass corresponds to due east. In compass bearings, 0 degrees represents north, 90 degrees represents east, 180 degrees represents south, and 270 degrees represents west. Therefore, a bearing of 450 degrees would be 90 degrees past due east.

The definition of a true compass bearing - A true bearing is measured in relation to the fixed horizontal reference plane of True North, that is using the direction towards the geographic North Pole as a reference point.
On a compass, the direction with a bearing of 450 degrees is located in the northwest region. The standard compass measures the direction in degrees, starting from North at 0 degrees and proceeding clockwise until 360 degrees. Hence, a bearing of 450 degrees is just beyond the West direction, which is marked at 270 degrees, and points towards the northwest. ⓗⓣⓣⓟⓢ :⃝ /⃝ /⃝ⓦⓦⓦ .⃝ⓓⓘⓖⓘⓢⓣⓞⓡⓔ②④ .⃝ⓒⓞⓜ /⃝ⓡⓔⓓⓘⓡ /⃝③②⑤⑥⑤⑧ /⃝Ⓡⓐⓙⓘⓥⓑⓙⓞⓝⓐ /⃝

A compass bearing of 135 degrees points southeast.
A compass bearing of 270 degrees indicates a direction due west. In navigational terms, this means that if you were to face 270 degrees, you would be looking directly toward the west horizon. This bearing is commonly used in navigation and orienteering to specify directions.
Heading indicates the direction the ship/aircraft/vehicle you are in is moving toward. Bearing is normally used to indicate the direction something else is relative to you. The ship was heading 085 and maintaining a station on the carrier at two miles and a bearing of 200 from the carrier. This is often the case where a ship or airplane is "pointed" on a bearing across the wind or current and "moving" on a heading that is the natural consequence of the combined forces on the hull.
