The owner of a van installs a rear-window lens that has a focal length of -0.302 m. When the owner looks out through the lens at a person standing directly behind the van, the person appears to be just 0.238 m from the back of the van, and appears to be 0.341 m tall.

a) How far from the van is the person actually standing?

b) How tall is the person?
