Question

When light reflects off a surface, the angle between ____ and ____ is called the angle of incidence.

  1. Incident ray and the reflecting surface
  2. Incident ray and the normal line
  3. Incident ray and the reflected ray
  4. Reflected ray and the normal line

hintHint:

The angle between the incident ray and the normal is called the angle of incidence.

The correct answer is: Incident ray and the normal line


    • When a ray is reflected from a surface it is called a reflected ray.
    • The ray which is directed towards the surface is called the ray of incidence.
    • The normal lies between the incidence ray and the reflected ray.
    • The angle between the incident ray and the normal is called the angle of incidence.
