Trigonometric Ratios in Right Triangles
You may have polarized sunglasses that eliminate glare by polarizing the light. When light is polarized, all of the waves are traveling in parallel planes. Suppose vertically polarized light with intensity strikes a polarized filter with its axis at an angle of with the vertical. The intensity of the transmitted light and are related by the equation cos theta = sqrt It/ I0 if theta = 45 degrees
