Answer:

183.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Kindly check the picture attached for the solution diagram

Using the cosine formula (Diagram has two sides and an included angle)

x² = y² + z² - 2zy * cosX

x² = 150² + 60² - 2(150*60) * cos115

x² = 22500 + 3600 - 18000 * −0.422618

x² = 22500 + 3600 + 7607.1287

x² = 33707.128 miles

x = √33707.128

x = 183.59501

x = 183.6 miles
