Question 315 Deck Safety
70% to passIf there is a possibility of confusion, which signal should be used to send the group "True Bearing 045 Degrees"?
A
A045
B
B045T
C
B045
D
045
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) A045. The reasoning for this is that the International Code of Signals specifies the use of the "A" signal flag to indicate a true bearing or course. The number following the "A" flag indicates the bearing in degrees. Therefore, A045 is the proper signal to convey the group "True Bearing 045 Degrees". The other options are incorrect because: B) B045T is not a valid signal flag combination for indicating a true bearing. C) B045 indicates a magnetic bearing, not a true bearing. D) 045 does not include the necessary "A" signal flag to properly communicate the bearing.
