Upon completion of this week's instruction you should be able to:
State the formula for solving speed distance time problems and use it to solve for the unknown given appropriate data.
Solve problems involving relative bearing when given other appropriate data.
Given a bearing determine its reciprocal.
Convert between true, magnetic, and compass bearings given values of variation and deviation.
Convert between various units of speed such as from ft/min to meters/sec.
Define and describe the following:
Variation
Deviation
Isogonal
