We know that the index of refraction of materials can help

We know that the index of refraction of materials can help identify those materials. A light beam is shined onto a surface a reflected ray and is found to be completely polarized when the angle of incidence is 61.0⁰. (a) What is the index of refraction of the reflecting material? (b) What is the angle of refraction if some light passes through the surface of the material?
