Finding the distance of a plane east and west given a bearing and distance

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the distance traveled by an airplane using bearings and trigonometry. It begins with an introduction to bearings and cardinal directions, followed by calculating the distance using speed and time. The tutorial then forms a right triangle to solve the problem and uses trigonometric functions to find the distances traveled north and east.
