Light of intensity I0 and polarized parallel to the transmission axis of a polarizer, is incident on

Question:

Light of intensity I0 and polarized parallel to the transmission axis of a polarizer, is incident on an analyzer.
(a) If the transmission axis of the analyzer makes an angle of 45° with the axis of the polarizer, what is the intensity of the transmitted light?
(b) What should the angle between the transmission axes be to make I/I0 = 1/3?
