When light passing through one transparent medium reaches the surface of another Transparent medium changes its trajectory to achieve the minimum time path. This trend is known as Snell's Law.   Sen(a) /v1 =Sen(b)/v2  where a and b are the figure angles and v1 and v2 the speeds of light in each medium, respectively. Using Lagrange multipliers to deduce that law by imposing the restriction x+y=a. how to solve it

The figure below shows the path of a beam of light through several layers with different indices of refraction. (Assume n4 = 1.10.) An illustration shows four media, represented as long, horizontal rectangles, arranged one on top of the other such that each medium has a higher index of refraction than the medium below it. The indexes of the four media from top to bottom are as follows: 1.60, 1.40, 1.20, and n4. A ray of light starts from within...
