10° above NW
"10° above NW" is a direction or bearing. Let's break it down:
- "NW" stands for Northwest, which is a cardinal direction, 315° on the compass.
- "10° above" means 10 degrees more than NW, so you need to add 10° to the NW direction.
To calculate the resulting direction:
315° (NW) + 10° = 325°
Therefore, "10° above NW" corresponds to a bearing of 325°, which is roughly between NW and NNW (North-Northwest).
In practical terms, if you're facing NW, you would need to turn slightly to your left (about 10°) to face the direction "10° above NW".
