Question about bearings?

How do i use the law of cosine to find bearings.For example:On a hiker's map, point A is 2.7 in. due west of point B and point C is 3.4 in. from B and 4.1 in. from A, respectively. Find the bearing of A from C and the bearing of B from C

Answer:

law okorder / the solution I gave is correct assuming C is north of A-B because bearings are taken CCW from N. the solution you are reporting is correct if C is south of A-B — a bit of information not provided. ??
