The law of reflection governs the reflection of light-rays off smooth conducting surfaces, such as polished metal or metal-coated glass mirrors.

law of reflection also holds for non-plane mirrors, provided that the normal at any point on the mirror is understood to be the outward pointing normal to the local tangent plane of the mirror at that point. For rough surfaces, the law of reflection remains valid. It predicts that rays incident at slightly different points on the surface are reflected in completely different directions, because the normal to a rough surface varies in direction very strongly from point to point on the surface. This type of reflection is called diffuse reflection, and is what enables us to see non-shiny objects.

Dhiren123: It is not The law of reflection
Destroyer48: the one u gave is the law of refraction!!

The angle of incidence is always equal to the angle Of reflection....
The incident ray of reflection the normal and the reflected ray of reflection to the point of incidence lie in the same plane..
