Let cliff height be h,   Total time of fall from cliff  to ground =T  ;   also let me call 1.30s = t_0    h=(1/2)gt^2   ((2h)/3)=(1/2)g(t−t_0 )^2   upon division,    (3/2)=(t^2 /((t−t_0 )^2 ))   ⇒  t−t_0 =((√(2/3)))t     or   t=(t_0 /(1−(√(2/3)))) =((t_0 (1+(√(2/3))))/((1/3)))  h=(1/2)gt^2  = (g/2)(9t_0 ^2 )((5/3)+((2(√2))/(√3)))     =((9.8)/2)(9×1.3×1.3)(((5+2(√6))/3))    =(4.9×3×1.69)(5+2×2.45)    =(14.7×1.69)(9.9)                          h ≈ 246m .
