Identify the angle of incidence on the first mirror. The angle of incidence is given as 32°.
Apply the law of reflection on the first mirror, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Therefore, the angle of reflection on the first mirror is also 32°.
Determine the angle between the two mirrors. Since the mirrors meet at a 135° angle, the angle between the normal of the first mirror and the second mirror is 135° - 90° = 45°.
Calculate the angle of incidence on the second mirror. This is the angle between the direction of the reflected ray from the first mirror and the normal to the second mirror. Since the reflected ray makes a 32° angle with the normal of the first mirror, and the mirrors are 45° apart, the angle of incidence on the second mirror is 45° - 32° = 13°.
Apply the law of reflection on the second mirror to find the angle of reflection, which is equal to the angle of incidence on the second mirror. Thus, the angle θ at which the light rays leave the second mirror is 13°.

Law of Reflection

The Law of Reflection states that when a light ray strikes a reflective surface, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This principle is fundamental in understanding how light behaves when it encounters mirrors, allowing us to predict the path of light after it reflects off surfaces.

Law of Reflection

Angle Between Mirrors

The angle between two mirrors affects the total number of reflections and the angles at which light exits. In this case, with mirrors meeting at a 135° angle, the geometry of the setup will influence how the light rays are redirected after striking each mirror, requiring careful consideration of the angles involved.

Geometric Relationships in Reflection

Understanding the geometric relationships in reflection involves analyzing how angles and positions of mirrors interact. For instance, when light strikes the first mirror at a specific angle, the subsequent angle at which it strikes the second mirror can be calculated using the known angles and the properties of triangles formed by the light paths.
