This document provides summaries of key formulas and concepts in ray optics, including: 1) Snell's law describes the relationship between the refractive indices of two media and the angle of incidence and refraction. Total internal reflection occurs when light travels from an optically dense medium to a less dense one at an angle greater than the critical angle. 2) Formulas are provided for mirror and lens formulas, linear magnification, magnification of microscopes and telescopes, and resolving power. 3) Refraction through a prism depends on the angle of incidence and angle of minimum deviation. Dispersion and angular dispersion describe how prisms separate white light into constituent colors.
