The value of angle of emergence and angle of deviation should be 36.5° and 26.5°
Explanation:
Sin (i)/Sin (r1) = μ
Sin 37°/ μ = Sin (r1)
3/5 x 2/3 = Sin (r1)
r1 = Sin^-1(2/5)
= 23.5°
r2 = 60° - 23.5°
= 36.5°
Now
μ = Sin e /Sin r2
Sin e = 3/2 x 0.59
Sin e = 0.891
e = Sin^-1 (0.891)
e = 62.99
e = 63°
S + A = i + e
S = (i + e) - A
S = 26.5°
Thus the value of angle of emergence and angle of deviation should be 36.5° and 26.5°
