Which of the following statement is // ...

Which of the following statement is `//` are correct about the refraction of light from a plane surface when light rays is incident in denser medium. `[` C is critical angle `]`

A

The maximum angle of deviation during refraction is `(pi//2)-C`, it will be at angle of incidence C

B

The maximum angle of deviation for all angles of incidence is `pi-2C`, when angle of incidence is slightly greater than C

C

If angle of incidence is less than C, then deviation increases if angle of incidence ia also inicreased

D

If angle of incidence is greater than C, then angle of deviation decreases if angle of incidence is increased
