The scale diagram shows two islands at A and B. [Figure showing North, A, B]
- (a)Write the scale 2 cm to 1 km in the form 1 : n.[1]
- (b)By measurement, find the bearing of B from A.[1]
- (c)An island at C is on the northern side of AB. It is 3 km from A and 2.5 km from B. Use a ruler and a pair of compasses to construct triangle ABC.[2]
