A right-triangulated prism made of benzene sits on a table. The hypotenuse makes an angle of $30^\circ$ with the horizontal table. An incoming ray of light hits the hypotenuse horizontally, and leaves the prism from the vertical leg at an acute angle of $ \gamma $ with respect to the vertical leg. Find $\gamma$, in degrees, to the nearest integer. The index of refraction of benzene is $1.50$. [i](Proposed by Ahaan Rungta)[/i]

[b]p1.[/b] Two players play the following game. On the lowest left square of an $8 \times 8$ chessboard there is a rook (castle). The first player is allowed to move the rook up or to the right by an arbitrary number of squares. The second layer is also allowed to move the rook up or to the right by an arbitrary number of squares. Then the first player is allowed to do this again, and so on. The one who moves the rook to the upper right square wins. Who has a winning strategy?
