Find $θ$ if the light is falling on the pole of the spherical mirror.

Open in App

Solution

We know that the laws of reflection will be followed at each and every surface where reflection is happening.

Given:
Angle of incidence $∠ i = θ = 30^{\circ}$
By the law of reflection,
Angle of incidence = Angle of reflection
$⟹ ∠ i = ∠ r =$ $30^{\circ}$
So, the angle of reflection, $∠ r = θ$ = $30^{\circ}$
