Here is the problem which I am struggling on, please help me!

Problem: You can determine the index of refraction of a substance by determining its critical angle.

Part I: What is the index of refraction of a substance that has a critical angle of 51.7° when submerged in water, which has an index of refraction of 1.333?

Part II: What would the critical angle be for this substance in air?
