Answer 1

Answer:

30°

Explanation:

Angle of incidence = Angle of reflection

Answer 2

Given:

Angle between the incident ray and the reflected ray = 60°

To find:

• The angle of incidence.
• The angle of reflection.

Solution:

One of the law of reflection states that,

Angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection.

Here, to find the angle of incidence and reflection, we will use this law only.

As the normal is drawn perpendicular to the mirror surface, we can make out the angle between incident ray and normal (angle of incidence) and the angle between normal and reflected ray (angle of reflection).

Given that,

Angle between incident ray and reflected ray = 60°

Angle of incidence = $\sf \dfrac {60}{2}$°

= 30°

Now, as, angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection,

30° = Angle of reflection.

Final answer:

Angle of incidence is 30° and angle of reflection is also 30°.
