Usage of active sonar

Hi there folks..
i assume pinging merchant vessels is safe in terms of not being detected.. however i wonder if it is still safe like if you ping a merchant on spesific bearing and have a DD also near but on a different bearing.. i mean do you acctually point the pings to certain bearings??

another question is that if the DD's can locate your ping from any direction or is it also limited with their sensor angles..

oh boy.. seems like my english starts to suck.. hope it is clear & sorry..

thnx in advance for the answers..
