Nvm: I think i got it. D= theta1 - apex + arcsin [n Sin(apex)Cos(theta2) -cos(apex)Sin(theta1)] Just need to to get rid of Cos(theta2).

Its a derivation, it involves pure algerba especially in this case. The only way( i know at least) to derive equations is through substituting and eliminating certain variables. And the attempts I've made are just trying plug stuff into 1 equations try to eliminate and so forth. It takes me...

Yep, i have no clue how derive though. In my attempts I'm always left with an equation that lacks one of either, D,n, apex angle or incident.

Trying to relate Equation 4.6, 4.7, 4.8 from here: [PLAIN]http://physics.nmt.edu/~raymond/classes/ph13xbook/node35.html[/URL] Basically trying to relate the deviation angle, incident angle, refractive index and apex angle. 2. The equations are in the link. 3. My attempts are less than fit to...
