How does the angle of minimum deviation of a glass prism vary, if the incident violet light is replaced with red light?

A glass prism with a refracting angle of 60^(@) has a refractive index 1.52 for red and 1.6 for violet light. A parallel beam of white is incident on one face at an angle of incident which gives minimum deviation for red light. Find : [Use : sin(50^(@))=0.760 , sin(31.6^(@))=0.520 , sin (28.4^(@))=0.475 , sin (56^(@))= 0.832 , = 22//7 ] The angle of incidence at the prism is :
