First of all we can discuss about reflection of light waves (plane electromagnetic waves) . Reflection of light occurs when light rays strike the interface between the two media's here it is glass -air interface a part of the incident light is turned back to the same media . Reflection is of two types
Here in the question they mentioned that the boundary is like a sinusoidal type so it is a type of irregular surface. So here the reflection is diffused type reflection. Ie, the wave get reflected by different points and reflected to different directions. Example for a diffused reflection is reflection from a news paper, wall etc...
Hope you ok with this and thank you.

A monochromatic, plane electromagnetic wave, incident from vacuum at an angle θ to the normal is reflected from the surface of a semi-infinite slab of perfect electric conductor that occupies the space z 2 0. Take the plane of incidence to be the x - z plane and the boundary to be the z- 0 plane. If the incident wave is polarised with its electric field parallel to the plane of incidence, write down expressions for: The surface charge density...

A block of glass with flat sides is surrounded by air. A ray of light traveling in the glass (refractive index na) is incident on the flat interface with air at the top surface of the block of glass. You observe that no light is refracted into the air if the incident ray in the glass has an angle of incidence (measured relative to the normal to the surface of the glass) greater than 35.5°. What is the refractive index...
