    applying the double angle formula again to sin(4x), you will get 2sin(2x)cos(2x). You can see that you already have sin(2x)cos(2x). so if you do what you just did before and you will get 1/4 sin(4x) edit: its just the double angle formula rearranged; sin(2x)=2sin(x)cos(x) 1/2*sin(2x)=sin(x)cos(x)

    Along with the different refractive index, I think you should also mention the other requirement for total internal reflection, that the angle of incidence must be greater than the critical angle.

    Since sin(θ) = cos(90-θ), you can change the sin^2(50) into cos^2(90-50) = cos^2(40). now you have cos^2(40)+sin^2(40) which is = 1 (by the Pythagorean trig identity)
