The correct answer is:
$20^{\circ}$
Given : $\delta_m=10^{\circ}, \mu=1.5$
For a thin prism of minimum deviation
$\delta_m=(\mu-1) \mathrm{A}$
$10^{\circ}=(1.5-1) \mathrm{A}$ or $A=\frac{10}{0.5}=20^{\circ}$
For a thin prism of minimum deviation
$\delta_m=(\mu-1) \mathrm{A}$
$10^{\circ}=(1.5-1) \mathrm{A}$ or $A=\frac{10}{0.5}=20^{\circ}$
