The displacement of Edward in the westerly direction is determined as 180.27 km.

<h3>Displacement of Edward</h3>

The displacement of Edward is calculated as follows;

R² = a² + b² - 2abcosθ

R² = 150² + 200² - 2(150 x 200) x cos60

R² = 32500

R = 180.27 km

Thus, the displacement of Edward in the westerly direction is determined as 180.27 km.
