1.7

There was no value for index of refraction given in the problem, I had to solve for what it was for plastic and make the assumption that it was 1.33 for water

the question is the statement

so would attempt two be the more correct option or way to approach the problem?

Attempt one: 1sin(35.8) = n2sin(90) n2=0.58 1.33sin(𝜃)=0.58sin(90) 𝜃_c=25.8 Attempt two: n1=n2/sin𝜃_c n1=1/sin(35.8) n1 = 1.7 sin𝜃_c = 1.33 / 1.7 𝜃_c = 51.57
