Christine's Problem

Jim sees a forest fire at the top of a cliff (just make Jim a little dot). The cliff is one mile high and from the point he is standing at, Jim can see the entire tree. From the angle in which Jim can see the bottom of the tree is S25’E. The angle from the top of the tree facing Jim is N48’E. The height of the trees are 2 miles long. About how far is Jim from the very top of the tree?
