For a prism of prism angle $\theta=60^{\circ}$,the refractive indices of the left half and the right half are,respectively,$n_1$ and $n_2$ $(n_2 \geq n_1)$ as shown in the figure. The angle of incidence $i$ is chosen such that the incident light rays will have minimum deviation if $n_1=n_2=n=1.5$. For the case of unequal refractive indices,$n_1=n$ and $n_2=n+\Delta n$ (where $\Delta n \ll n$),the angle of emergence $e=i+\Delta e$. Which of the following statement$(s)$ is (are) correct?
$(A)$ The value of $\Delta e$ (in radians) is greater than that of $\Delta n$
