    The diagram shows a ray of light reflected at a plane mirror.
    Which pair of the angle of incidence and angle of reflection is correct?
     
     

    A)
    Angle of Incidence Angle of reflection
    \[\text{30 }\!\!{}^\circ\!\!\text{ }\] \[\text{30 }\!\!{}^\circ\!\!\text{ }\]

    B)
    Angle of Incidence Angle of reflection
    \[\text{30 }\!\!{}^\circ\!\!\text{ }\] \[\text{60 }\!\!{}^\circ\!\!\text{ }\]
     

    C)
    Angle of Incidence Angle of reflection
    \[\text{60 }\!\!{}^\circ\!\!\text{ }\] \[\text{30 }\!\!{}^\circ\!\!\text{ }\]
                   

    D)
    Angle of Incidence Angle of reflection
    \[\text{60 }\!\!{}^\circ\!\!\text{ }\] \[\text{60 }\!\!{}^\circ\!\!\text{ }\]
     

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    By the geometry of figure angle of incidence \[\text{=30 }\!\!{}^\circ\!\!\text{ }\]. According to first law of reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
