$2$. $OP$ is the incident ray.
$3$. $i$ represents the angle of incidence.
$4$. $PQ$ is the refracted ray inside the prism.
$5$. $QR$ is the emergent ray.
$6$. $e$ is the angle of emergence.
$7$. $\delta$ represents the angle of deviation,which is the angle between the incident ray and the emergent ray.
