Q.
A ray of light from a denser medium strikes a rarer medium at angle of incidence i as shown in the figure. The reflected and refracted rays make an angle of 90∘ with each other. The angles of reflection and refraction are r and r′ respectively. The critical angle is
sin−1(tanr)
sin−1(tani)
sin−1(tanr′)
tan−1(tani)
