Problem

A graph is plotted between the angle of incidence ii on the xx -axis and the angle of deviation δ\delta on the yy -axis for a triangular prism. The curve is a parabola opening upwards with its minimum point at coordinates (45∘,30∘)(45^{\circ}, 30^{\circ}). Assuming the prism is equilateral, calculate its refractive index.
