No its not sure that it will be true bearing if the bearing is with magnetic meridian then it will be magnetic bearing and similarly in case of azimuth also.

We can Say 'azimuth' because bearing indicates that measured in clock wise direction.

Answer is wrong because magnetic bearing is right answer.

The true bearing is bearing which is measured with true meridian.

Ans, is false because, true bearing of line is measured from true meridian.

Hence, correct, answer is magnetic meridian because bearing of a line with magnetic meridian is known as magnetic bearing or "simply bearing of a line".

It is not true Bearing as well as Azimuth as true bearing of line is called Azimuth. Answer should be Magnetic Bearing or Reduced Bearing.

Magnetic bearing is also called "bearing" & true bearing is also known as "azimuth".

Bearings are taking from compass. Hence bearing means magnetic bearing.

The correct answer is magnetic bearing.

A true bearing to a point is the angle measured in degree in a clockwise direction from the North line. This can simply be referred as the bearing. So true bearing is absolutely correct.

@Ogundele.

The True bearing is also known as azimuth so this should also be correct as to you.
