Thin film diffraction -- need help to start

Homework Statement



I attached a picture of the problem, could anyone tell how I would begin to proceed with this problem? I believe that it is more complicated than simply a Snell's law problem, due to the thin film of oil.

Thanks for your consideration.

All you need is snell's law. However, you will need to use it twice.
