Polarised light is incident on crossed polarisers (i.e. polarisers with perpendicular polarisation axes). The first polariser the light encounters is aligned with the light polarisation. A third polariser is inserted between the crossed polarisers, with its polarisation axis rotated by 0.28 radians relative to the first polariser. What is the percentage of light intensity transmitted through all three polarisers?
