A hiker is standing on the ground looking up to the top of a tree with an angle of elevation of 0 = 53°. The figure shown above represents the situation where the base of the triangle is the eye level of the hiker and the vertical side is the tree. Based on the dimensions shown in the figure, what is the distance a, in feet from the hiker to the base of the tree? Round to one decimal place.
