It is found in the 4th quadrant because:-0-90 first quadrant,90-180 2nd quadrant,180-270 3rd, quadrant and 270-360 fond in 4th quadrant.

So, 273 is on the fourth quadrant and to find, W.C.B = 360 - 87 = 273.

It is in 4th quadrant, because it is northwest. North west is at 4th quadrant and it is the clockwise direction it will be 360-87=273.

Because in WCB method all bearing are measured north direction and in this case, it is in anticlock wise so 360 - 87 = 273.

The whole circle bearing (W.C.B) of a line is the horizontal angle measured clockwise from the North limb of the meridian.

Here, clearly given its N87°W, and North to West is 4th quadrant so the ans. is 360-87= 273.

It is in 4 quadrant, to convert it from RB to WCB = 360-Bearing of line.

360-87 = 273.

We know that,

W.C.B=360-R.B (in case of the 4th quadrant),
so,
W.C.B=360-87=273°.

I think north west is in 3rd quadrant. How you say that is in 4th quadrant?
