  • The critical angle is 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.

  • It is the smallest angle of incidence that yields total reflection.

  • The critical angle is the angle of incidence which provides a 90 degree angle of refraction.

  • It must be noted here that the critical angle is an angle of incidence value.
