Explanation:

frac{sin\;i}{sin\;r}=constant=\mu

Where i is the angle of incidence and r is the angle of refraction. This constant value is called the refractive index of the second medium with respect to the first. Snell's law formula is derived from Fermat's principle.

Snell's law asserts that n1/n2 = sin α2/sin α1. Because the ratio n1/n2 is a constant for any given wavelength of light, the ratio of the two sines is also a constant for any angle.The constant is a fixed value u will always find by solving sin i/sin r.
