The problem states that a ship sails from point \( A \) to point \( B \) in the direction \( 022^\circ \), and asks for the direction it should take to return from \( B \) to \( A \) along the same route.

### Solution:
- Directions in navigation are based on a 360-degree compass where \( 0^\circ \) corresponds to north, \( 90^\circ \) is east, \( 180^\circ \) is south, and \( 270^\circ \) is west.
- To return along the same route, the ship must travel in the opposite direction. This is done by adding or subtracting \( 180^\circ \) to the given direction to ensure it is within \( 0^\circ \) to \( 360^\circ \).

\[
\text{Return direction} = 022^\circ + 180^\circ = 202^\circ
\]

Thus, the ship should sail in the direction **\( 202^\circ \)** to return to point \( A \).

Would you like a detailed explanation of how navigation directions work or any additional clarifications?  

Here are 5 related questions for further practice:
1. If a ship sails from \( A \) to \( B \) in the direction \( 145^\circ \), in which direction should it return?
2. What is the opposite direction of \( 315^\circ \) on a compass?
3. How would you calculate the return direction if the compass uses a bearing system from \( 1^\circ \) to \( 400^\circ \)?
4. What is the shortest angle to turn from \( 045^\circ \) to \( 202^\circ \)?
5. How do the cardinal directions (N, E, S, W) relate to degree measurements in navigation?

### Tip:
When reversing a direction, always ensure your result is within \( 0^\circ \) to \( 360^\circ \) by subtracting \( 360^\circ \) if the sum exceeds \( 360^\circ \).

A ship sails from A to B in the direction 022°. If the ship wants to return to A from B by the same route, in which direction should it sail?

Understand how to calculate the return direction for a ship traveling from A to B at 022°. This example illustrates using compass bearings, modulo arithmetic, and navigation concepts. Ideal for students in Grades 8-10.
