What is Huygen's principle?

Using Huygen's principle and drawing the sketches of wavefronts,show how a parallel beam of ligth is refrated from the surface of separation of a rarer medium to a denser medium .Verify Snell's law.

A plane wave front AB propagating from denser medium (1)into a rarer medium (2) is incident on the surface P_1P_2 separating the two media as shown in the figure. Using Huygen's principle, draw the secondary wavelets and obtain the refracted wave front in the diagram.

By using Huygen’s principle prove the laws of refraction of light.
