Take critical angle for glass = 42°. Refraction of light at plane surfaces, Concise Physics Class 10 Solutions.

(a) The angle of incidence at the faces AB, i = 0°.
The angle of incidence at the faces AC, i = 60°.

(b) The phenomenon which the ray of light suffers at:
face AB — refraction
face AC — total internal reflection
face BC — refraction
