A ray is incident at an angle of incidence i on one surface of a small angle prism (with angle of prism A) and emerges normally from the opposite surface. If the refractive index of the material of the prism is μ then the angle of incidence is nearly equal to :  

a
2Aμ
b
μA
c
μA2
d
A2μ

detailed solution
