Dear student 
Resultant speed of aeroplane=R at an angle 30 degree from North
Speed of wind = 20 m/s at an angle 0 degree from North
Speed of aeroplane in the air 150 m/s direction at an angle theta degree from North
Using sin law in triangle formed
20/sin(theta-30) =150/sin30
sin(theta-30)/20=sin30/150
Sin ( theta-30)=(1/300)*20=1/15=0.0667=sin 3.8
Theta = 33.8 degree
Hope this helps 
Good Luck
