634.

in the image above, an incident ray XY makes an angle of 15\( ^{\circ} \) with a fixed line AY which is normal to surface of a plane mirror if the mirroe is turned as indicated by the arrow through \( 40^{\circ} \) what angle will the reflected ray make with AY

A.

\( 25^{\circ} \)

B.

\( 40^{\circ} \)

C.

\( 15^{\circ} \)

D.

\( 55^{\circ} \)

E.

\( 95^{\circ} \)

Correct answer is E

incident ray = XY

incidence angle i = 15\( ^{\circ} \)

rotation angle θ = 40º

angle that the reflected ray make with AY = i + 2θ  

= 15 + [2 * 40] = 15 + 80 = 95º
