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 right, A bearing of a line is called magnetic bearing. It is a horizontal angle measured with magnetic meridian.

I think answer is right. As true meridian is contant. So the bearing of line with respect to true meridian is called true bearing.

Anil said:   8 years ago
Yes, the correct answer is magnetic bearing because of the true bearing is always represented by the true meridian or "Azimuth".

Answer is wrong because magnetic bearing is right answer.

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

Magnetic bearing is called simply 'bearing' and true bearing also called 'azimuth'. So correct answer is magnetic bearing.

Magnetic bearing is also called bearing but true brearing is called amzimuth so the right answer is magnetic bearing.

ShaZaib Qazi said:   7 years ago
No, the true bearing is also called azimuth and magnetic bearing is simply called bearing of a line.
