Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Brewster's law to solve the problem . Let i be the angle of reflection required. According to this law ,

tan i = μ where i is angle of incidence , μ is refractive index of the medium .

Here i = ? , μ = 1.31

tani = 1.31

i = 53° approx .

At the angle of 53° incidence , the reflected ray will be completely polarised .
