Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
From the properties of light, the incidence angle is equal to the angle of emergence in a glass slab. Therefore, when a light ray passes through a glass slab, the emergent ray will be parallel to the incident ray because the incident angle is equal to the angle of emergence.
The emergent ray will be parallel to the incident ray when it passes through a glass slab.
