Back azimuth from triangulation station Baltazar to Balanacan is which value?

Explanation:
Back azimuth is the direction from the starting station to the destination measured clockwise from true north, and it is opposite to the forward bearing from the destination back to the starting point. In practice, you obtain it by adding 180 degrees to the forward bearing (mod 360 if needed). If the forward bearing from Baltazar to Balanacan is about 9°11'50.60", then adding 180° gives 189°11'50.60". That matches the back azimuth value chosen. So the back azimuth from Baltazar to Balanacan is 189° 11' 50.60".
