B. There is total internal reflection in the faster medium.
C. There is total internal reflection in the slower medium. 
D. The reflected ray makes an angle of 90°.E. The reflected ray makes an angle equal to the critical angle.

There is total internal reflection in the slower medium as Snell's law can no longer be satisfied.
