Answer: 30 degrees
Reason:
Since according to laws of reflection,
Angle of Incidence= Angle of Reflection.
Thus, angle of reflection will be sixty degrees too, that is, the degree between the normal and the reflected ray. But we have been asked to find out the angle between the reflected ray and mirror, which is known as the Glance angle.
And Formula to find out glance angle is:
Glance angle = 90degrees- angle of reflection.
Therefore, glance angle = 90-60
And thus,
Glance angle =30.

Your answer....
30°
According to laws of reflection....
Angle of incidence = Angle of reflection
Angle of reflection and the angle between the reflected ray and mirror are complementary angles.....
Let "X" be the angle between reflected ray and mirror.
Then,
60° + X = 90°
X = 30°
