It is not obvious in all relative motion problems how to draw the vector diagrams. Sometimes the velocity of the object with respect to the Earth is not the hypotenuse of the velocity vector addition triangle. Here we address how to handle a problem like that.

Two vehicles driven at different speeds parallel to one another is a great one dimensional way to introduce relative motion. When viewed from above using a quadcopter drone, it is even better!
