d = 167.7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Mrs. Tyner drove about 150 km east from Pearland, to Houston, Texas. She  drove about another 75 km north to Dallas.

It is required to find the approximate air  distance from Pearland to Dallas, Texas.

The resultant vector will give the approximate air  distance. So,

$d=\sqrt{150^2+75^2} \\\\d=167.7\ m$

So, the approximate air  distance from Pearland to Dallas, Texas is 167.7 m.
