    They are both oriented at a slight angle to each other.

    Explanation:

    The magnetic field of bar magnet put at the south pole of the earth experience force parallel towards the magnetic South pole at around 500000 years.

    Answer:The Earth's Geographical and Magnetic axis are slightly oriented to each other.

    The Earth's Geographical North=The Earth's magnetic South and the Earth's Geographical South=The Earth's magnetic South.

    Explanation: The distance between the Earth's Geographical and Magnetic axis is about 10degrees, the Earth's magnetic axis acts just like the bar magnet with a simple dipole. The Earth's rotation axis is between the Geographical North and Geographical South with its centre at the equator. The Earth behaves as a bar magnet with its Geographical North at the Magnetic south and its Geographical South at the Magnetic North. The Earth's magnetic field is created by the Earth's movements around its axis.
