There is no reason to go 120 degrees from the torpedo bearing, that just lets the torpedo close distance on you. Use sonobuoys if you want to keep track of the thing, you've got some 300 of them onboard. 180 degrees is the bearing you want to be from a torpedo that's heading towards you.
As far as turning 180 from a missile, well, in the game it makes not much difference. I personally like to turn toward a missile at about a 30-45 degree angle. There is the downside of possibly losing your CIWS fire though, because there's a no fire zone toward the bow of the ship.
Make sure you do launch a LOT of chaff though. Don't worry about conserving it, throw as much chaff into missiles as you can, because the odds are you will die if you don't. For every missile fired at me I usually launch 5 chaff and 3 flares. If more than one missile is fired at you in a salvo, launch almost everything and bug out.
