This video explains how horizontal (x) and vertical (y) components of a vector (resultant) can be obtained by constructing a right-angled triangle and using trigonometry.  Two examples are given.

1. A plane flying N-E (60⁰ from north) at 50m/s.

The horizontal component = 50cos30⁰

The vertical...
