We wish to determine the index of refraction (n) of a medium by measuring how much light bends when it travels from one medium to another. The law relating angles and indexes of refraction is Snell's Law:

n1sinq1=n2sinq2.

Given the following measurements find n2, and using propagation of errors find the uncertainty of n2.

n1=1.0000 (exactly) q1=22.03±0.2 degrees q2=14.45±0.2 degrees

Please show your work, make sure any images that are uploaded are clear and that your writing is legible.
