A ray of light travelling in the direction is incident on a plane mirror. After reflection, it travels along the direction . The angle of incidence is
- (A)30°✓ Correct
- (B)45°
- (C)60°
- (D)75°
Answer: (A)
Solution
The angle between the incident ray and reflected ray is found using the dot product:
Therefore
Since the angle between incident and reflected rays is , we have:
Hence the answer is (A).
Therefore
Since the angle between incident and reflected rays is , we have:
Hence the answer is (A).
