9. (Refer to Figure 25, area 5.) The VOR is tuned to the Dallas/Fort Worth VORTAC. The omnibearing selector (OBS) is set on 253°, with a TO indication, and a right course deviation indicator (CDI) deflection. What is the aircraft's position from the VORTAC?

The OBS is set to 253° with a TO indication and a right CDI deflection, which means the airplane is left of course (an OBS setting greater than 253°). The reciprocal of 253° is 073°, but since the airplane is left of course, the actual radial the airplane is on is greater than 073°, or closer to east. Therefore, the airplane is east-northeast of the VOR.
