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: -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.
