Question
The graph between sine of angle of refraction (sin r) in medium 2 and sine of angle of incidence (sin i) in medium 1 indicates that (tan 36° > 
)
- Total internal reflection can take place
- Total internal reflection cannot take place
- Any of (a) and (b)
- Data is incomplete
The correct answer is: Total internal reflection cannot take place
From graph, slope 
Also 
Þ 
It means that medium 2 is denser medium. So total internal reflection cannot occur
