A ray of light passes through an equilateral glass prism in such a manner that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of emergence and each of these angles is equal to `3//4` of the angle of the prism. The angle of deviation is

A

`45^@`

B

`39^@`

C

`20^@`

D

`30^@`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`i=e=3/4A`
`i=e=3/4xx60^@`
`i=45^@`
`delta_"min"=2i-A`
`=2xx45-60=30^@`
