Answer: distance from Columbus to Richmond is 345 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angles in a triangle

A + B + C = 180

30° + 56° + C = 180°

C = 180° - 86°

C = 94°

USING SINE RULE:

a/SinA = b/SinB = c/SinC

b/SinB = c/SinC

b/Sin56° = 415/Sin94°

bSin94° = 415 × Sin 56°

b = 344.05059 ÷ 0.9975640

b = 344.89

b = 345 miles (to the nearest mile)

distance from Columbus to Richmond is 345 miles
