Question

Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct according to the laws of reflection?

• A. Angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
• B. Difference of the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection is ${90}^{\circ }$.
• C. The incident ray, the normal and the reflected ray all lie in the same plane.
• D. The incident ray, the normal and the reflected ray lie in perpendicular planes.

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (C)

The correct options are
A

Angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

C

The incident ray, the normal and the reflected ray all lie in the same plane.

According to the laws of reflection:

1. Angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection.
2. The incident ray, normal and the reflected ray lie in the same plane.

These laws are always applicable during reflection of a light ray.
