# I guess you use...
trig to figure out the sides of the triangle if you extend the line first movement til it's level with the end point, then use pythagoras on the GIANT right angled triangle to find the final answer, and then trig to find the bearing.

Unless there's an easier way, I just figured out that (theoretically, not with an answer) in my head.

# No,
I know the cosine rule. That was the first thing I thought of using, then I couldn't remember it exactly. So I tried to bash out another way :)

# pah.
despite scoring higher on the SATs in math, I'm escaping my hellish calculus class. How many teachers do you have that intentionally make you feel less of yourself for doing something wrong?

# Might I point out...
that you are missing an 's' on the end of 'maths'?
