a mirror is a plane surface and reflects the light at a particular fixed angle and maintains the angle which is equal to the angle of incidence of the incident light ray
whereas for the wall, it is a rough surface and the angle of reflection is never same as the angle of incidence of the incident light ray (as a whole) , the wall reflects the light ray in different angles.

sadvisadvika: thank u
sadvisadvika: y wall wont make angle of reflection is equal to angle of incidence
H2SO4: yes the angle of incidence will be same as that of the angle of reflection for the particular portion of the wall only and not as a whole.
sadvisadvika: ohh thank u

mirror have a plain surface and will reflect straight and with angel making,but wall is not a plain surface aur may be it but it will not conduct the light in straight line and make un define pattern
