The fly moves from a point U on a bearing of 060° to a point V 20m away. It then moves from point V to point W, which is due east of U. Find the distance of point V from W.
Answer (2)
The distance from point V to point W is 10 meters. This is determined by calculating the vertical distance since W is directly east of U. Points U, V, and W are set in a coordinate system with V directly above W by 10 meters.

WV = 15.56 m
WU = 29.24 m
