pi/3 = sixty degrees.

Although I think it might be closer to 45 degrees... Or maybe 90...

Sigh.

Put in the following phrase into Google: "At what angle above the horizon is the Sun if light from it is completely polarized upon reflection from water" . With quotes.

Then look at the first link. Seriously people. If you have something like Google at your fingertips, USE it.
