sure angle of deviation is the vector OK hard without drawing but two parallel lines angle is 0 degrees crossing lines angle is 90 degrees two lines at 45 degree is 45 degree just a word to describe the angle that a vector ( direction ) differs from the base line ( if you and a friend drive side by side and he swerves so that for every foot you go forward he also goes one foot sideways this is a 45 degree angle of deviation ( 45 degee angle) from your path ( which is the baseline that you are measuring from)

When light passes through a prism, the angle of the emergent ray is the angle of deviation.
