Solution

The correct option is C incident ray
A reflected ray is a ray of light that represents the light reflected by the surface or the ray of light that bounces off the mirror.
The normal is the line perpendicular to the surface of an optical medium at a given point.

An incident ray is a ray of light approaching the mirror or falling on the mirror.
Hence, the correct answer is OPTION C.
