Calculate Angle of Deviation







Formula

The formula to calculate Angle of Deviation is:

\[ D = i + e - A \]

Where:

Definition

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.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ D = 0.698131700797601 + 0.0698131700797601 - 0.610865238197901 \]

Evaluating:

\[ D = 0.15707963267946 \text{ rad} \]

The Angle of Deviation is 0.15707963267946 rad.
