The correct options are
A
B
C
The emergent ray is parallel to the incident ray for a rectangular slab or a combination of parallel rectangular slabs. The medium of the slabs do not matter for this to happen.
For a prism, the emergent ray will not be parallel to the incident ray and there will be a finite angle between them.
