The refractive index of the material of a prism is \(\sqrt{2}\) and the angle of the prism is \(30^\circ.\) One of the two refracting surfaces of the prism is made a mirror inwards with a silver coating. A beam of monochromatic light entering the prism from the other face will retrace its path (after reflection from the silvered surface) if the angle of incidence on the prism is:

1. \(60^\circ\) 2. \(45^\circ\)
3. \(30^\circ\) 4. zero
