According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence and angle of reflection are equal. Both these angles are measured with respect to a line normal to the reflection surface. If I understand the question correctly, the incident ray makes an angle of 60 degrees with the mirror surface, then the angle of incidence can be calculated as:

Angle of incidence = 90 - angle made with the mirror surface

= 90 - 60 = 30 degrees.

Since, angle of incidence = angle of reflection = 30 degrees.

The incident ray will have an angle of reflection of 30 degrees (made with a surface normal to the mirror surface).

The reflected ray will make an angle of 60 degrees (90 - 30 degrees) with the mirror surface.

Hope this helps.

Thanu03: The deviation produced is 180- 2i= 180-120=60

Answer:

The Angle of incidence: 90-angle made with the mirror surface

= 90-60=30 degrees

Since, angle of incidence = angle of reflection = 30 degrees

The incident ray will have an angle of reflection of 30 degrees ( made with a surface normal to the mirror surface )
