Question

An incident ray strike at a plane mirror at an angle of $15^{0}$ with the mirror. The angle between the reflected ray and incident ray is:

Open in App

Solution

The angle of incidence= $90 - 15$ = $75^{0}$

Therefore,

The angle of reflection= $75^{0}$ ( since the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection)
