A person swimming 0.80 m below the surface of the water in a swimming pool looks at the diving board that is directly overhead and sees the image of the board that is formed by refraction at the surface of the water. This image is a height of 4.25 m above the swimmer.

What is the actual height of the diving board above the surface of the water?
