When light is reflected off a more dense medium with higher index of refraction, crests get reflected as troughs and troughs get reflected as crests. The wave is said undergo a 180 o change of phase on reflection.

Explanation:
Optics. Light waves change phase by 180° when they reflect from the surface of a medium with higher refractive index than that of the medium in which they are travelling. ... The phase changes that take place upon reflection play an important part in thin film interference.
