Consider two waves 1 and 2 incident on planes 1 and 2
respectively at an angle 6. Let the interplanar distance is d'
The initial part of the two waves in
are phase,
The wave 2 reflected
from plane 2 ravels a greater distance than wave 1 reflected
from plane 1/Drawing AC and AD perpendicular to the incident
and reflected
portions of the second wave, it can be seen that the
extra distance travelled by the second
wave=BC+BD. From the
figure, angle BAC=angle EAG=6, each
being 90-angle EAC.
Sinilarly, angle BAD =angle HAF=0 each
