A ray of light is incident on a mirror which is lying on the \(x\text-y\) plane. The reflected ray travels along the direction of the vector \(3\hat i-4\hat j+2\hat k.\) The incident ray must be along:
1. \(-3\hat i+4\hat j+2\hat k\) 2. \(3\hat i-4\hat j-2\hat k\)
3. \(-3\hat i-4\hat j+2\hat k\) 4. \(-3\hat i+4\hat j-2\hat k\)

Two identical right-angled prisms are placed back to back as shown. A ray of light, incident on the first prism, making an angle \(\theta\) with its surface – passes through the system and emerges parallel to itself. The refractive index of the material of the prism is:
          
1. \(\sin\theta\)
2. \(\cos\theta\)
3. \(\tan\theta\)
4. \(\cot\theta\)
