draw a ray diagram. To see his feet, the base of the mirror must be 1/2 way between the floor and his eyes.
if he can see his feet, he can see the base of the wall behind.
Now to see the top of the wall behind, the top of the mirror must be 1/2 way up from his eyes to the top of the ceiling.
So figure the distance between the base and the top of the mirror.
