Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Angle of Deviation
Angle of Deviation is the angle between the incident ray and the emergent ray in the optical axis after passing through a lens or prism in optics.
Symbol: D
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Angle of Incidence
Angle of Incidence is the angle at which a light ray or a beam of light strikes a surface, such as a lens, mirror, or prism, and is used to describe the orientation of the incident light.
