For a ray of light travelling from water (refractive index 1.33) into air (refractive index 1.00), which one of the following expressions correctly defines the critical angle ici_c at the water–air boundary? a) sin⁡ic=1.331.00\sin i_c = \dfrac{1.33}{1.00} b) sin⁡ic=1.33−1.001.33\sin i_c = \dfrac{1.33-1.00}{1.33} c) sin⁡ic=1.001.33\sin i_c = \dfrac{1.00}{1.33} d) sin⁡ic=1.001.33+1.00\sin i_c = \dfrac{1.00}{1.33+1.00}
