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

1. \(60^{\circ}\) 2. \(0^{\circ}\)
3. \(30^{\circ}\) 4. \(45^{\circ}\)
