A narrow beam of light is incident from air onto a fused quartz surface with index of refraction 1.458. Find the angle of incidence for which the corresponding angle of refraction is one-half the angle of incidence. (Hint: You might want to use the trigonometric identity sin (20) = 2 sin(0) cos(0).) 0₁- Show My Work (Optional)?
