The horizontal angles from the boat between A and B and B and C, the stations on the shore are respectively θ1 and θ2. The distances AB = L1 and BC = L2. For calculating the angle α2 at C between the boat and station B is obtained by using the followin

The horizontal angles from the boat between A and B and B and C, the stations on the shore are respectively θ₁ and θ₂. The distances AB = L₁ and BC = L₂. For calculating the angle α₂ at C between the boat and station B is obtained by using the following formula: where (β is horizontal angle between A and C at B).
