Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What does The law of reflection state?
A
the angle the incident ray makes with a line drawn perpendicular to the surface of the mirror.
B
shows how rays change direction when they strike mirrors and pass through lenses.
C
The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -According to laws of reflection: The incident ray, the normal, and the reflected ray all lie on the same plane. The angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection.

Detailed explanation-2: -The first law of reflection states that when light is reflected from a surface, the angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection, where both the angles are measured from the path of the light to the normal to the surface.

Detailed explanation-3: -According to Fermat’s principle of the behavior of light, a light ray always selects the shortest path to reach the destination. The same behavior is observed at the point of reflection. When a ray gets reflected from the plane, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

Detailed explanation-4: -The law of reflection states that the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface of the mirror all lie in the same plane. Furthermore, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. . Both angles are measured with respect to the normal to the mirror.

Detailed explanation-5: -The first law of reflection states that the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface of the mirror, all lie in the same plane. The second law of reflection states that the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. Both angles are measured with respect to the normal to the mirror.
