Choose the correct alternative and rewrite the following sentence.

A ray of light strikes the glass slab at an angle of 50°. What is the angle of incidence?


A student very cautiously traces the path of a ray through a glass slab for different values of the angle of incidence (∠i). He then measures the corresponding values of the angle of refraction (∠r) and the angle of emergence (∠e) for every value of the angle of incidence. On analysing these measurements of angles, his conclusion would be

(A) ∠i > ∠r  > ∠e

(B) ∠i = ∠e  > ∠r

(C) ∠i < ∠r  < ∠e

(D) ∠i = ∠e  < ∠r
