AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the angle of incidence of a ray of light falling on a glass plate with a refractive index of \( \mu = 1.5 \), given that the angle between the reflected and refracted rays is \( 90^\circ \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Geometry**: - Let \( i \) be the angle of incidence. - According to the law of reflection, the angle of reflection \( r \) is equal to the angle of incidence, so \( r = i \). - The angle between the reflected ray and the refracted ray is given as \( 90^\circ \). ...
