The $X-Y$ plane is taken as the boundary between two transparent media $M_{1}$ and $M_{2}$. $M_{1}$ in $Z \geq 0$ has a refractive index of $\sqrt{2}$ and $M_{2}$ with $Z < 0$ has a refractive index of $\sqrt{3}$. $A$ ray of light travelling in $M_{1}$ along the direction given by the vector $\overrightarrow{A} = 4\sqrt{3}\hat{i} - 3\sqrt{3}\hat{j} - 5\hat{k}$ is incident on the plane of separation. The value of the difference between the angle of incidence in $M_{1}$ and the angle of refraction in $M_{2}$ will be $....$ degrees.
