10° above SSW
"10° above SSW" is a direction or bearing, used to specify a location or orientation. Let's break it down:
- "SSW" stands for South-Southwest, which is a cardinal direction, 202.5° on the compass.
- "10° above" means 10 degrees more than SSW, so you need to add 10° to the SSW direction.
To calculate the resulting direction:
202.5° (SSW) + 10° = 212.5°
Therefore, "10° above SSW" corresponds to a bearing of 212.5°, which is roughly between SSW and SW.
In practical terms, if you're facing SSW, you would need to turn slightly to your right (about 10°) to face the direction "10° above SSW".
