First, locate the 20 degree line on the "Relative Wind Angle" scale. Move along this line to halfway between the 40- and 50-knot arc lines. This is the 45-knot wind speed point. From this point, drop straight down to the "Crosswind Component" axis to a point halfway between 10 and 20. This is the crosswind component, 15 knots. Correct
