Calcite (\rm CaCO_3) is a crystal with abnormally largebirefringence. The index of refraction for light with electricfield parallel to the optical axis (called extraordinary waves ore-waves) is 1.4864. The index of refraction for light with electricfield perpendicular to the optical axis (called ordinary waves oro-waves) is 1.6584.

You send a beam of light from a material with index of refraction 1.21 into an unknown material. In order to help identify this material, you determine its index of refraction by measuring the angles of incidence and refraction for which you find the values 41.9° and 37.3° respectively. What is the index of refraction of the unknown material?
