Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since critical angle of prism
`i_c = 42^@ ,` for given ray AB incident on surface XZ at an angle of incidence of 30°, and refracted out from prism ` ( :. mu = (1)/( sin i_c))`
The angle of refraction is given by, `mu sin r =1.sinr = ( sin 30^@)/( sin 42^@) = ( 0.5 ) /( 0.669 ) = 0.75 = r= 40^@ `
