Let the angles of incidence and refraction be I and R respectively. By Snell’s law, sin(I)=ρsin(R) where ρ is the refractive index. In your case sin(I)=sin(2R)=2sin(R)cos(R), so ρ=2cos(R).

And that is as far as you can go without knowing ρ. Knowing ρ gives you cos(R) and hence gives you sin(R) and hence sin(I). Conversely, if you know I or R you can find ρ.
