59. A light ray incident on a prism is refracted at the first surface, as shown in Figure P22.59. Let Ф represent the apex angle of the prism and n its index of refraction. Find, in terms of n and Ф, the smallest allowed value of the angle of incidence at the first surface for which the refracted ray will not undergo total internal reflection at the second surface.
