in Figure 9.3-3. Note that when a negative number is subtracted from a
positive number, the resulting arithmetic operation is addition.
For example, the declination for Longmont, CO is 10.1
°
, thus True North is
360
°
- 10.1
°
, or 349.9
°
as read on a compass. Likewise, the declination for Mc
Henry, IL is -2.6
°
, and True North is 0
°
- (-2.6
°
), or 2.6
°
as read on a compass.
