Answer:

36.11 degrees

Explanation:

index of refraction n = sin i/sinr

i is the angle of incidence

r is the angle of refraction

Substitute into the expression

1.39 = sin55/sin(r)

1.39 = 0.8191/sin(r)

sin(r) = 0.8191/1.39

sin(r) = 0.5893

r = arcsin(0.5893)

r = 36.11

hence the angle of refraction of light is 36.11 degrees
