If you want a quick, approximate confirmation of your calculation, consider that every 10mm in difference in center to flange (CTF) distance results in 1mm difference in spoke length. So working back from your answer, I'd expect that your CTF distances would be different by about 6mm or so. If the CTF distances differ by more than 10mm, you made an error someplace along the line.
