A ray of light falls on a triangular glass prism in such a way that the deviation of the emergent ray is minimum for that prism. Draw the ray diagram for this case and write the relation between the angle of incidence and angle of emergence.

Solution

For minimum deviation to take place, 
angle of incidence = angle of emergence. 

The ray diagram is as shown below:
