The refractive angle of prism is A. A ray is incident normally on one of the refracting faces of a prism and emerges out. If D be the deviation of the ray then refractive index of the material of the prism is—

A

`sin((A + D)/2)/sin (A/2)`

B

`sin((A + D)/sin (A/2)`

C

`sin((A/2 + D)/sin (A/2)`

D

`sin(A - D)/sin A`
