Alright, so now you have some values. Time to plug that shit into the equations.

And we end up with a value of 1.432245340659903. Multiply that number by -1, and you have your bearing offset. It is either -1 or -2!

Now to solve for the power offset.
 
First, plug in your values. We know the distance is equal to the square root of 1601, so no need to calculate that again. Elevation was 45, and the Power was 20.

Well, the sine of 90pi/180 radians, or pi/2, is 1, so we can cut that shit out of the equation
 
[[File:Telescience plugged distance equation step 1.png]]
 
Multiply both sides by 10
 
[[File:Telescience plugged distance equation step 2.png]]
 
Take the square root of both sides
 
[[File:Telescience plugged distance equation step 3.png]]
 
Well, we know that PowerOffset must be a negative number. Therefore we can remove those bars and multiply the left side of the equation by -1.
 
[[File:Telescience plugged distance equation step 4.png]]
 
Add 20 to both sides
 
[[File:Telescience plugged distance equation step 5.png]]
 
Which is equal to -0.0031242678450383. Therefore, the power offset is 0.
