View SolutionLet the refractive index of a denser medium with respect to a rarer medium be $n_{12}$ and its critical angle be $\theta_C$. At an angle of incidence $A$ when light is travelling from a denser medium to a rarer medium,a part of the light is reflected and the rest is refracted,and the angle between the reflected and refracted rays is $90^o$. Angle $A$ is given by
