\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{d}=\sqrt{2 \mathrm{Rh}_{\mathrm{T}}}+\sqrt{2 \mathrm{Rh}_{\mathrm{R}}} \\ & \mathrm{d}=\sqrt{2 \mathrm{R}}(\sqrt{180}+\sqrt{245}) \\ & \mathrm{d}=\sqrt{2 \times 64 \times 10^5}(\sqrt{180}+\sqrt{245}) \\ & \mathrm{d}=3577.7(13.416+15.652) \mathrm{m} \\ & \mathrm{d}=104 \mathrm{~km} \end{aligned}
