God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically. ~~~Albert Einstein (1879-1955)~~~~
To divide a cube into two other cubes, a fourth power or in general any power whatever into two powers of the same denomination above the second is impossible, and I have assuredly found an admirable proof of this, but the margin is too narrow to contain it.~~~Pierre de Fermat (1601-1665)~~~

U can say zero degree but actually u CANT define angle of refraction here as NO refraction wud take place. Light wud pass thru slab without any deviation.

The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.

It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.

Its zero.
Its because the noramal ray incident on the boundary of interface passes undeflected.

The Scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, & he delights in it because it is beautiful. If nature were not beautiful, it would not be worth knowing, life would not be worth living. Ofcourse I do not here speak of that beauty that strikes the senses, the beauty of qualities & appearances; not that I undervalue such beauty, far from it, but it has nothing to do with science; I mean that profounder beauty which comes from the harmoniuos order of the parts, & which a pure intelligence can grasp.

zero degree
since i =0
therefore sin i = 0
therefore sinr=0
i.e. r=0..

I DONOT FOLLOW THE RULES I MAKE THEM TO FOLLOW ME.

0 degree as sin of angle of incidence /sin of angle of refractionn is a constant so as angle of incidence is 0 degree , refraction wud b zero
