Cross section of a glass prism has the form of an equilateral triangle. A ray is incident onto one of the faces perpendicular to it. Angle between the incident ray and the ray that leaves the prism in degree is ………× 60º. The refraction index of glass is 1.5.

The refractive index of the material of a prism is and the angle of prism is One of its refracting faces is polished. The incident beam of lift will retrace back for angle of incidence
