A ray of light is incident on a plane mirror at an angle of 30°. What is the angle of reflection?

According to the law of reflection

The angle of incidence = Angle of reflection


Let’s draw a figure for this question –

According to the given question, incident ray is making an angle of 300 with the plane mirror ()


So angle of incidence i + 300 = 900


Angle of incidence i = 600


From law of reflection, Angle of reflection r = 600
