Question
Figure 33-49 shows light reflecting from two perpendicular reflecting surfaces $A$ and $B$. Find the angle between the incoming ray $j$ and the outgoing ray $r^{\prime}$.
Step 1
This is a fundamental property of light reflection. Therefore, the incoming ray $I$ makes an angle $\theta$ with the normal on surface $A$, and the reflected ray $R$ also makes an angle $\theta$ with the normal. Show more…
