\mathrm{\mu=\frac{\sin i}{\sin r} \Rightarrow \sin r=\frac{\sin i}{\mu}=\frac{0.788}{1.33}=0.6}
\mathrm{ \cos r=\sqrt{1-\sin ^{2} r}=\sqrt{1-(0.6)^{2}}=0.8}

For constructive interference on reflection

\mathrm{ 2 \mu t \cos r=(2 n+1) \frac{\lambda}{2} }
\mathrm{ \Rightarrow t=\frac{(2 n+1) \lambda}{4 \mu \cos r}=\frac{(2 n+1) \times 0.6}{4 \times 1.33 \times 0.8} }
\mathrm{ =0.14(22+1) \mu \mathrm{m}}
