Question

As shown in the figure, the angle between two plane mirrors (M1 and M2) is 125°. If the incident ray strikes mirror M1 with an angle of incidence ?1i = 56°, determine the angle of reflection ?2r for mirror M2.

As shown in the figure, the angle between two plane mirrors (M1 and M2) is 125°. If the incident ray strikes mirror M1 with an angle of incidence ?1i = 50°, determine the angle of reflection ?2r for mirror M2.

Answer #1

b = 90˚ - 50˚ = 40˚

c = 180˚ - (125˚+40˚) = 15˚ 

θ2r = 90˚-15˚ = 75˚

Answer: 75˚
