Detailed Solution

θ which is critical angle for refraction from n2 to n1 will be more than critical angle between n3 and n2 if n3 < n1.so, TIR will take place at AB.

Hence,

If n3 > n1, then TIR will take place at CD. 

if n3 < n1 , then TIR will take place at AB. 

if n2 > n3 > n1 , then TIR will take place at CD.
