Answer 3

There are 4 methods and being a nautical student these should be the first thing you should have learned:

Celestial - using the sun,stars and moon in determining a vessel's position

Terrestrial (piloting) - using earth based reference points, such as  aids to navigation, landmarks and or depth sounding to determine position.

Deductive (Dead) Reckoning - using a vessel's speed, course, time, and previous known positions to deduce an approximate position.

and finally:

Electronic - using GPS, Loran, Radar and other electronic instruments to determine position.

I would study the "rules of the road" very hard, as that USCG test is the hardest and you need a 90% to pass that test.

Good Luck
