a) The height of the tree
Step 1: Identify the known values in the right-angled triangle BFC.
The distance from the foot of the tree (F) to the chameleon (C) is $FC = 14.4 \text{ m}$.
The angle of elevation of the bird (B) from the chameleon (C) is $\angle BCF = 41.4^\circ$.
Step 2: Use the tangent ratio to find the height of the bird (BF).
$$\tan(\angle BCF) = \frac{BF}{FC}$$
$$\tan(41.4^\circ) = \frac{BF}{14.4 \text{ m}}$$
$$BF = 14.4 \text{ m} \times \tan(41.4^\circ)$$
$$BF = 14.4 \text{ m} \times 0.88009$$
$$BF \approx 12.6733 \text{ m}$$
Step 3: Calculate the height of the tree (TF).
Since B is the midpoint of FT, the height of the tree TF is twice the height of the bird BF.
$$TF = 2 \times BF$$
$$TF = 2 \times 12.6733 \text{ m}$$
$$TF \approx 25.3466 \text{ m}$$
Step 4: Round the height to 2 decimal places.
$$TF \approx 25.35 \text{ m}$$
The height of the tree is $\boxed{25.35 \text{ m}}$.
b) The angle of depression of the chameleon from point T
Step 1: Identify the known values in the right-angled triangle TFC.
The height of the tree $TF \approx 25.3466 \text{ m}$ (from part a).
The distance from the foot of the tree (F) to the chameleon (C) is $FC = 14.4 \text{ m}$.
Step 2: The angle of depression of the chameleon from point T is equal to the angle of elevation of T from C, which is $\angle TCF$. Use the tangent ratio.
$$\tan(\angle TCF) = \frac{TF}{FC}$$
$$\tan(\angle TCF) = \frac{25.3466 \text{ m}}{14.4 \text{ m}}$$
$$\tan(\angle TCF) \approx 1.76018$$
Step 3: Calculate the angle $\angle TCF$.
$$\angle TCF = \arctan(1.76018)$$
$$\angle TCF \approx 60.399^\circ$$
Step 4: Round the angle to 2 decimal places.
$$\angle TCF \approx 60.40^\circ$$
The angle of depression of the chameleon from point T is $\boxed{60.40^\circ}$.

Step 1: Convert the side length of the cubical stone from cm to m.
$$s = 40 \text{ cm} = 0.4 \text{ m}$$
Step 2: Calculate the volume of the cubical stone in m$^3$.
$$V = s^3$$
$$V = (0.4 \text{ m})^3$$
$$V = 0.064 \text{ m}^3$$
Step 3: Use the given mass and calculated volume to determine the density.
$$m = 12 \text{ kg}$$
$$\rho = \frac{m}{V}$$
$$\rho = \frac{12 \text{ kg}}{0.064 \text{ m}^3}$$
$$\rho = 187.5 \text{ kg/m}^3$$
The density of the stone is $\boxed{187.5 \text{ kg/m}^3}$.

Step 1: Use the area formula for a triangle to find $\angle PQR$.
Given Area $= 30\sqrt{3} \text{ cm}^2$, $PQ = 10 \text{ cm}$, $QR = 12 \text{ cm}$.
$$\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times PQ \times QR \times \sin(\angle PQR)$$
$$30\sqrt{3} = \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 12 \times \sin(\angle PQR)$$
$$30\sqrt{3} = 60 \times \sin(\angle PQR)$$
$$\sin(\angle PQR) = \frac{30\sqrt{3}}{60}$$
$$\sin(\angle PQR) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$$
Step 2: Determine the obtuse angle $\angle PQR$.
Since $\sin(\angle PQR) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$, the acute angle is $60^\circ$. As $\angle PQR$ is obtuse,
$$\angle PQR = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ$$
Step 3: Use the Cosine Rule to find the length of PR.
$$PR^2 = PQ^2 + QR^2 - 2 \times PQ \times QR \times \cos(\angle PQR)$$
$$PR^2 = (10 \text{ cm})^2 + (12 \text{ cm})^2 - 2 \times 10 \text{ cm} \times 12 \text{ cm} \times \cos(120^\circ)$$
$$PR^2 = 100 \text{ cm}^2 + 144 \text{ cm}^2 - 240 \text{ cm}^2 \times \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)$$
$$PR^2 = 244 \text{ cm}^2 + 120 \text{ cm}^2$$
$$PR^2 = 364 \text{ cm}^2$$
$$PR = \sqrt{364} \text{ cm}$$
$$PR \approx 19.0787 \text{ cm}$$
Step 4: Calculate the perimeter of the triangle.
$$\text{Perimeter} = PQ + QR + PR$$
$$\text{Perimeter} = 10 \text{ cm} + 12 \text{ cm} + 19.0787 \text{ cm}$$
$$\text{Perimeter} = 41.0787 \text{ cm}$$
Step 5: Round the perimeter to 2 decimal places.
$$\text{Perimeter} \approx 41.08 \text{ cm}$$
The perimeter of the triangle is $\boxed{41.08 \text{ cm}}$.
