Solution
The correct option is A vertical plane
When unpolarised light is made incident at polarising angle, the reflected light is plane polarised in a direction perpendicular to the plane of incidence. Therefore →E in reflected light will vibrate in the vertical plane with respect to the plane of incidence.
