Her tires are cylinders that are $6$ inches in width and have diameter $26$ inches, but need to be replaced when the diameter is less than $22$ inches. The tire manufacturer says that $0.12\pi$ cubic inches will wear away with every single rotation.

The screen is on a wall and is $5$ meters tall with the bottom edge of the screen $1.5$ meters above the floor. The floor is sloped downwards at $15$ degrees towards the screen. James wants to find a seat which maximizes his vertical viewing angle (depicted below as $\theta$ in a two dimensional cross section), which is the angle subtended by the top and bottom edges of the screen. How far back from the screen in meters (measured along the floor) should he sit in order to maximize his vertical viewing angle?
