 Brewster’s Law:
The tangent of the angle of polarisation is equal to the refractive index of the reflecting
medium.
μ = Tan i p
At polarising angle the reflected ray and refracted ray are perpendicular to each other.

relationship for light waves stating that the maximum polarization (vibration in one plane only) of a ray of light may be achieved by letting the ray fall on a surface of a transparent medium in such a way that the refracted ray makes an angle of 90° with the reflected ray.Brewster’s Law:
