On entering the tomb of FRED the Hero of Nod, you find your¬self in a dark closed chamber with a small hole in a wall 3.0 m up from the floor. Once a year, on FRED's birthday, a beam of sunlight enters via the hole, strikes a small polished gold disk on the floor 4.0 m from the wall and reflects off it, lighting up a great diamond embedded in the forehead of a glorious statue of FRED, 20 m from the wall. Roughly how tall is the statue?
