To solve the problem of finding the angle of minimum deviation for an equilateral glass prism in a medium with a given refractive index, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given data - The refractive index of the glass prism (n_g) = 1.6 - The refractive index of the medium (n_m) = \( \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{5} \) - The angle of the prism (A) for an equilateral prism = 60° (since all angles in an equilateral triangle are equal) ### Step 2: Use the formula for the angle of minimum deviation (D) ...
