The minimum deviation produced by a hollow prism filled with a certain liquid is found to be $30^{\circ}$. The light ray is also found to be refracted at an angle of $30^{\circ}$. Then the refractive index of the liquid is

The refractive index of the material of a glass prism is $\sqrt{3}$. If the angle of minimum deviation is equal to the angle of the prism,then the angle of the prism is:
$\left(\cos 30^{\circ} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = \sin 60^{\circ}, \sin 30^{\circ} = \frac{1}{2} = \cos 60^{\circ}\right)$ (in $^{\circ}$)

Minimum deviation is observed with a prism having angle of prism $A$,angle of deviation $\delta$,angle of incidence $i$,and angle of emergence $e$. We then have generally
