Resorting to the Fresnel equations, demonstrate that light reflected from the surface of dielectric will be totally polarized if the angle of incidence θ1 satisfies the condition tan θ1 = n, where n is the refractive index of the dielectric. What is in this case the angle between the reflected and refracted rays?
