A right-angled prism of refractive index is placed in a rectangular block of refractive index , which is surrounded by a medium of refractive index , as shown in the figure. A ray of light enters the rectangular block at normal incidence. Depending upon the relationships between and , it takes one of the four possible paths or .

Match the paths in List with conditions of refractive indices in List and select the correct answer using the codes given below the lists:
