Adam must fly home to city A from a business meeting in city B. One flight option flies directly to city A from​ B, a distance of about 467.5 miles. A second flight option flies first to city C and then connects to A. The bearing from B to C is N28.8 degrees°​E, and the bearing from B to A is N60.9degrees°E. The bearing from A to B is S60.9 degrees°​W, and the bearing from A to C is N78.8 degrees°W. How many more frequent flyer miles will Adam receive if he takes the connecting flight rather than the direct​ flight?
