Physics Question on Ray optics and optical instruments

Monochromatic light is incident on a glass prism of angle AA. If the refractive index of the material of the prism is uu, a ray incident at an angle θ\theta, on the face ABAB would get transmitted through the face ACAC of the prism provided

A

θ<cos1[μsin(A+sin1(1μ))]\theta < cos^{-1}\Bigg[\mu sin\Bigg(A+sin^{-1}\Bigg(\frac{1}{\mu}\Bigg)\Bigg)\Bigg]

B

θ<sin1[μsin(Asin1(1μ))]\theta < sin^{-1}\Bigg[\mu\, sin\Bigg(A-sin^{-1}\Bigg(\frac{1}{\mu}\Bigg)\Bigg)\Bigg]

C

θ>cos1[μsin(A+sin1(1μ))]\theta > cos^{-1}\Bigg[\mu\, sin\Bigg(A+sin^{-1}\Bigg(\frac{1}{\mu}\Bigg)\Bigg)\Bigg]

D

θ>sin1[μsin(Asin1(1μ))]\theta > sin^{-1}\Bigg[\mu\, sin\Bigg(A-sin^{-1}\Bigg(\frac{1}{\mu}\Bigg)\Bigg)\Bigg]

Answer

θ>sin1[μsin(Asin1(1μ))]\theta > sin^{-1}\Bigg[\mu\, sin\Bigg(A-sin^{-1}\Bigg(\frac{1}{\mu}\Bigg)\Bigg)\Bigg]
