Problem 2 In a compass survey made 50 years ago the observed magnetic bearing of a reference line XY was N 60°20° W when the magnetic declination was 9°10' West. Lately in 2018, a new survey was made and the magnetic declination in the same survey site changed to 10°12' East. Determine the following descriptions of line XY: a. Its true bearing b. The true azimuth from North and South C. Its new magnetic bearing The magnetic azimuth from North and South in 2018 d.
