    Exclamation Please help asap

    I need a function that converts bearings into degrees....Are there any such functions?

    Example how would i go about converting

    S 9 degrees 13' 0" E into an angle

    I need this to so I can compute the sine and cosine (the distance is 299.54)

    SO in my spreadsheet I need to come up with formulas to spit out this data...

    bearing S 9 degrees 13' 0" E
    = Decimal form = 9.21666667 (bearing in decimal form)
    distance= 299.54

    Cos = 299.54 x Cos(9.2166667) = .511792
    Sin = 299.54 x Sin(9.2166667) = .85910

    ANY IDEAS?

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution. Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.
    To change a Title on your post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.
    Hope that helps.
