Determine the distance from LAT 59°12'N, LONG 14°00'W to LAT 59°12'N, LONG 03°20'W, by parallel sailing.

Correct Answer: Option C — 327.7 miles

Parallel sailing formula: Departure = DLo × cos(Lat). The difference in longitude is 10°40' (640'). At 59°12'N, the cosine of the latitude is 0.5120. Multiplying 640 by 0.5120 equals 327.7 miles. This calculation provides the precise distance along the parallel of latitude.
