Pole star can be located with the help of two stars at the end of Ursa Major. Imagine a straight line passing through these stars. Extend the imaginary line in North direction. This line is about five times the distance between two stars. A star is seen in this direction which is called Pole star.

Locate the Ursa Major and locate the quadrilateral in it. Select the two stars on the far side of the quadrilateral. Join these stars with a line and extend this imaginary line towards the top of the ladle. A faint star which meets this line is the pole star.
