Two rays of light converge toward each other, as shown in the figure below, forming an angle of θ = 26.1°

Before they intersect, however, they are reflected from a circular plane mirror with a diameter of x = 10.6 cm. If the mirror can be moved horizontally to the left or right, what is the greatest possible distance d from the mirror to the point where the reflected rays meet?

Answer #1

DMax = 10.6/ (2* tan(26.1) = 10.6 / 0.4635751086 = 22.865766 = 22.87cm
