A light ray is incident on a reflecting surface. If the light ray makes a "35°" angle with respect to the normal to the surface, what is the exact angle (in degrees) made by the reflected ray relative to the normal? Do not include units with your answer.

the light ray hitting the reflected surface is the incident ray, and forms an angle of incidence with the normal (the line perpendicular to the reflecting surface). The ray reflected fron the surface is called the reflected ray, and forms an angle of reflection.

since

the angle of incidence=angle of reflection

35° = 35°

The exact angle (in degrees) made by the reflected ray relative to the normal is 35

Reflection is the repropagation of light rays striking a plane surface.

According to the second law of reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection (i = r)

The angle that the ray makes with the normal is the angle of incidence. From the given question;

The angle of incidence is 35 degrees

According to the second law of reflection, the exact angle (in degrees) made by the reflected ray relative to the normal is 35
