Abstract: The propagation of a wave from the point source in the case when the velocity in the medium $v$ is expressed as $v=\frac1{\sqrt{y}}$ is considered. Exact solutions of the corresponding eikonal equation are obtained and numerically verified. The ambiguity of the solution to this question in the case when the point source is situated at the origin is shown.

Key words: wave propagation, wave front, eikonal equation, point source.
