Wow, I am very impressed at how you explained the difference between these. I have not heard even one Survey Teacher do this well at explaining why these are two different things.❤👍
Thank you so much for clearing up the distinction between a bearing and an Azimuth a lot of vids online dont do that and end up confusing people thanks,
Terrific and super clear explanation. This issue was greatly confused in Trigonometry text book by Lial, Hornby and Schneider eight edition. This video is one of the best ever!
Very clear explanation and excellent approach of providing examples that make it all clear. Thanks for taking the time and putting this together. Keep up the good work.
thanks for clearing my doubts on bearings and azimuths. I just started reading for my midsems on surveying, i m struck at these , u cleared em . thanks a lot , expecting more good videos from u :)
*THANK YOU* CRYSTAL clear explanation with equally clear examples. I needed to learn this and am very thankful I found your video ... and your voice is soothing and pleasant 😊
May I ask which drawing application you're using? Do you use an iPad with the Apple pencil? I love the simplicity and how easy you make it look, especially the lines that snap straight!
Am learning map reading and got a big book on it didnt know what azimith as as it wasnt explained very well in the book. Watched this and I fully understand thanks. One question I would ask if the azimith was 90⁰ would it matter if you but it as north or south for the bearing ?
Good stuff, but i still have a problem with it.... My homework is asking to change azimuths into degrees but the the first one i gotta do says 225 degrees 51' . The second one is 17degrees 19'. From what i am tracking there are degrees minutes and seconde . 60 seconds to a minute and 60 minutes to a degree. How do i to that?
Thank you so much, could you please explain this one in a simple way since I got me so confused. You are standing at point A facing due west. Your heading is Az 270 °°. You walk exactly 100 ft to point B and then turn 35 to the left (counterclockwise) to head to point C. What is your new Solution As shown in the following figure, when heading from point A to point B, your heading is Az 270 °°. When you turn to face point C, your heading changes by −35 and becomes Az 235 °°. However, when heading from C to B, your heading is Az 235 °°− 180 °°= Az 55
Here is a quick summary of how to convert from quadrant bearings (bearings) to full-circle bearings (azimuths): quadrant bearings always pull out from north or south, try to visualize quadrant bearings actually pulling away from the north/south line and you will always remember how this works. Converting quadrant bearings into full-circle bearings (what she calls azimuths): Quadrant I (NE)= do nothing but remove the letters N & E. Quadrant II (SE)= 180° - quadrant bearing. Quadrant III (SW)= 180° + quadrant bearing. Quadrant IV (NW)= 360° - quadrant bearing.
In the real world you don't get just a straight bearing its normally something like N 49 degrees 1 minutes and 59 seconds west how would that convert to an azimuth? Thank you
360° - N49°1'59"W = 310°58'1" full-circle bearing. but this is not what an azimuth is. I am trying to differentiate bearings from azimuths and there is a lot of mixed information because of how close the terms are and how many different disciplines use both terms for different purposes.
quadrant bearings always pull out from north or south, so for quadrant IV you will subtract 360° for the full-circle bearing. adding 270 sounds correct at first but that assumes that the quadrant bearing was pulled from west (270) into quadrant IV when it was actually pulled from north. Converting quadrant bearings into full circle bearings (what she calls azimuths): Quadrant I (NE)= do nothing but remove the letters N & E. Quadrant II (SE)= 180° - quadrant bearing. Quadrant III (SW)= 180° + quadrant bearing. Quadrant IV (NW)= 360° - quadrant bearing. @crremedies7783
