Consider a thin film of uniform thickness (t) and R.I (μ)

On Reflected side,

The ray of light R1 and R2 will interfere.

The path difference between R1 and R2 is,

Δ = μ(BC + CD) − BG

BC = CD = t/cosr..........(1)

Now,

BD = (2t) tan r .......(2) …

On Reflected side,

The ray of light BF and DE will interfere. The path difference between BF and DE is,

$$Δ = μ (BC + CD) - BG $$

$$BC = CD = \frac{t}{cos r}..........(1)$$

Now,

BD = (2t) …
