Answer:

Explanation:

If angle of incidence and angle of refraction be i   and r respectively ,

sini / sinr = μ ( refractive index )

sin r = sin i / μ

If angle of incidence i be constant and medium becomes denser that means μ becomes higher in value , the value of sin r will be low ( because of increase in value of denominator )

As sin r decreases , r also decreases also.

Hence when medium becomes denser , angle of refraction becomes less .
