Angle of the angle of incidence of light ray with first Mirror is 60 degree

Explanation:

In order to retrace the path of the light we know that the light must have to strike normally on the second mirror

So here we can say that

angle of incidence on second mirror must be 90 degree

now from geometry we will say that

angle of incidence on the first mirror will be

i = 90 - \theta

here we have

\theta + 90 + 60 = 180

\theta = 30

now we have

i = 90 - 30

i = 60 degree
