    A The incident angle is the angle for which the angle of refraction is 90°.

    Explanation:

    When the light travels from a high denser medium to a low denser medium, the light bends away from normal. The greater the angle of the incidence, the greater is the angle of the refraction. But, at certain angle, the refraction does not happen and the light got reflected instead to be refracted.

    This angle is called critical angle, when the angle of the refraction becomes equal to 90°.
