उत्तर
The formula used for determining the refractive index of materials of a prism in minimum deviation condition,
`n_21 = (sin[(A+D_m) /2])/(sin[A/2])`
Where, n21 `->`Refractive index of prism material with respect to the surrounding medium
A `->`Angle of the prism
Dm`->`Angle of minimum deviation
