Default Noob Question About Torpedo Angles

I'm going through the Sub School and trying to learn how to target enemy ships properly in manual mode. The problem is that I can't figure out the torpedo angles. If I go to the nav map is shows me a 360 protractor that gives a perfect angle off the port and stern, so I make proper adjustments, but then when I send those angles to the the nerds in my ship I get wildly different results every time I fire a torpedo.



Is there a tutorial besides the top youtube videos (that gloss over the entire concept), that explains how to calculate angles properly? I never finished geometry in high school so I need a manual that is very specific. Obviously I can just set the torpedo to magnetic impact but that defeats the purpose. Thanks in advance
