Critical angle → the angle of incidence beyond which rays of light passing through a denser medium to the surface of a less dense medium are no longer refracted but totally reflected.
Relation →
When the angle of refraction is equal to 90°, the angle of incidence is called the critical angle, At any angle of incidence greater than the critical angle, the light cannot pass through the surface - it is all reflected. Total because all of the energy is reflected.

Answer:
✅CRITICAL ANGLE
- The angle of incidence for which the angle of refraction is 90°, then that angle is called as critical angle.
✅RELATION
- Critical angle = 1 / Refractive index
