I knew the name

Really. I just didn't know the formula.

So I drew the starting point, the cars moving away. Then each turn.
I labeled the distance.

I then used my hand as as a protracter, swiveled toward the center, and marked it. This left a visual distance of a few miles. I guessed in the 20 area. 20 was one of the answers. I marked it.
