I have a Trigonometry problem I just can't seem to grasp: Given a coordinate, find a bearing to reach that coordinate.
What I have tried thus far:
I have another problem in the same section that gives the coordinate to be reached as (5,0)
. In order to solve this, I just thought of how it would be graphed on the Cartesian Coordinate Plain: Five positive units right, no units up. This would be on the x-axis and, being that coordinates start at the y-axis, it would be N 90 E
(90 degrees to the right of the y-axis)
However, when I get something such as (3,3)
or (2,-2)
, I have no idea where to start.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
