For a prism of refractive index `1.732`, the angle of minimum deviation is equal to the angle of the prism. The angle of the prism isA. `80^(@)`B. `70^(@)`C. `60^(@)`D. `50^(@)`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`mu=(sin .(A+delta_(m))/(2))/(sin .(A)/(2))=(sin.(A+A)/(2))/(sin.(A)/(2))=(sinA)/(sin.(A)/(2))`
`=(2sin.(A)/(2)cos .(A)/(2))/(sin.(A)/(2))=2 cos.(A)/(2)`
So,`sqrt(3)=2 cos .(A)/(2)=(sqrt(3))/(2)=cos .(A)/(2)impliesA=60^(@)`
