Question

Pls help ASAP. The answer i got for part c is 690.54 miles, so using this information, pls find the solution for part d. Please show all steps and calculations. 

 

(c) Now consider two points on the same meridian of longitude, but with different latitudes,
specifically (20°N, 127°W) and (30°N, 127°W). Determine the surface distance between
these points. Express your answer to 4 significant digits.
