What direction is 285 degrees?
Chinese compass points
| Point | Ordinal Name | Angle |
|---|---|---|
| 申 shēn | 240° | |
| 庚 gēng | 255° | |

What direction is 225 degrees?
Southwest
The nearest of the eight directions is Southwest at 225 degrees, which is five degrees lower, and the nearest cardinal direction is West. Read this as 5 degrees West-Southwest. If your orientation had been 220 degrees, you would read it as 5 degrees South-Southwest.
What angle is West?
270°
Cardinal points (in degrees) North (N): 0° = 360° East (E): 90° South (S): 180° West (W): 270°
What is the linear pair of 61?
Answer: The answer is 119 degree.
What is angle between East and west?
An angle of 0° corresponds to north, a 90° angle corresponds to east, a 180° angle to south, 270° to west and finally, an angle of 360° (that is, a full circle) corresponds again to north.
What is angle between North and west?
Answer : The angle between North and West is 90° and between South and East is also 90°.
What is west south west direction?
The direction, or the point on a mariner’s compass, halfway between due west and southwest; 22°30′ south of due west. The compass bearing or compass point halfway between west and southwest, specifically 247.5°, abbreviated as WSW.
What are the right angles to the north and South points?
The points at right angles to the North and South points are the East and West points. Going around the disk clockwise from the North point, one encounters in order the West point, the South point, and then the East point. This is opposite to the order on a terrestrial map because one is looking up instead of down.
Are there any directions that are perpendicular to North and South?
East and west are perpendicular (at right angles) to north and south, with east being in the clockwise direction of rotation from north and west being directly opposite east. The ordinal directions (also called the intercardinal directions) are northeast (NE), southeast (SE), southwest (SW), and northwest (NW).
What is the abbreviation for north, south, east and West?
NNE (North-North-East), ENE (East-North-East), ESE (East-South-East), SSE (South-South-East), SSW (South-South-West), WSW (West-South-West), WNW (West-North-West), NNW (North-North-west) Example: in the morning there was a strong North wind, but later it swung around to the North-East.
Which is halfway between North East and south east?
Halfway between North and East is North-East (NE). There is also South-East (SE), South-West (SW) and North-West (NW). And in between all of those are: NNE (North-North-East), ENE (East-North-East),
