Azimuth is the smaller angle when the bearing is measured wrt true meridian and expressed in WCB i.e. when the true bearing is less than 180 degrees then azimuth = true bearing but when the true bearing is more than 180 degrees then azimuth = 360-true bearing.

We have to take a smaller angle for azimuth it may be either clockwise or anticlockwise.
