Question

If the angle of incidence is $35$ degrees, what is the angle between the incident and the reflected rays?

• A. $90$
• B. $100$
• C. $70$
• D. none of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$70$

Correct answer: C

The angle between the incident and the reflected ray $=$ angle of incidence $+$ angle of reflection

The angle of incidence $=35$ degrees

According to law of reflection, angle of incidence $=$angle of reflection.

So, angle of reflection $=35$ degrees

So, angle between the incident and reflected ray is $35+35=70$ degrees

So, the angle between the incident and the reflected ray is $70$ degrees.
