Monochromatic light is incident on a glass prism of angle A. If the refractive index of the material of the prism is `mu`, a ray, incident at an angle `theta`, on the face AB would get transmitted through the face AC of the prism provided:

A

`theta lt sin^(-1)[mu sin (A - sin^(-1)(1/mu))]`

B

`theta gt cos^(-1)[mu sin (A + sin^(-1)(1/mu))]`

C

`theta lt cos^(-1)[mu sin (A + sin^(-1)(1/mu))]`

D

`theta gt sin^(-1)[mu sin (A - sin^(-1)(1/mu))]`
