A surveyor is sitting on the balcony of an apartment, 232 feet away from a clock tower. Using a clinometer, the surveyor estimates that the top of the clock tower creates a 22 degree angle of elevation with the balcony at a point that is 24 feet above the ground, as represented by the diagram. To the nearest tenth of a foot, how high is the top of the clock tower above the ground?
