always solve by leting two components as v1 in north nad v2(in east....as net b/w north n east).

as original speed at 30deg east of north so, so perpendiculat to it zero velocity.

v1sin30= v2sin60                 .........................1

also by relative concept as relative to other ship dirn is north so zero vel along east west direction...it gives

v2=10

 

thus find the ans...

then x=10/sin(30º)=10/1/2=20 km/h
