Define angle of incidence and angle of refraction.

In an experiment to trace the path of a ray of light passing through a rectangular glass slab, four students measured the angles of incidence (i), angles of refraction (r) and angles of emergence (e) as shown in the diagrams : The correct measurement is given in the diagram :

If angle of incidence is twice the angle of refraction in a medium of refractive index mu , then angle of incidence is

In the experiment to trace the path of a ray of light through a parallel sided glass slab, a student measured the angles of refraction for three different angles of incidence. He will find that :

A teacher asked four students to record the observations of the experiment on tracing the path of a ray of light through a rectangular glass slab. The students recorded their observations under the following headings : (1) Angle of incidence, Angle of refraction, Angle of reflection (2) Angle of incidence, Angle of deviation, Angle of emergence (3) Angle of incidence, Angle of reflection, Angle of emergence (4) Angle of incidence, Angle of refraction, Angle of emergence The correct observations were recorded by the student :
