He is 2√19 miles far way from starting point.
Suppose Billy starts at point A, turns at point B, and ends at point D, as shown below.
If Billy turns 60◦ northward and walks six miles, then we can draw a 30 − 60 − 90 triangle whose hypotenuse is 6 miles
It follows that Billy traveled 6/2 = 3 miles eastward during these 6 miles, and that he traveled 3√3 miles northward during these 6 miles. In total, Billy traveled 4 + 3 = 7 miles eastward and 3√ 3 miles northward.
By the Pythagorean Theorem, the distance from his starting point is q:
(7)2 + (3√3)2
=√49 + 27
= √76
= 2√19 .
