Question 1905Navigation General

The correct answer is D) 116.2°T. The initial great circle course angle between the two given positions is 063.8°. To find the true course, we need to add 180° to this angle, which gives us 243.8°. However, since the course is going from the Southern Hemisphere to the Eastern Hemisphere, we need to subtract 360° from 243.8°, which results in the true course of 116.2°T. The other options are incorrect because: A) 243.8°T is the initial great circle course angle, not the true course. B) 063.8°T is the initial great circle course angle, not the true course. C) 296.2°T is the incorrect calculation, as it does not account for the change in hemispheres.
