Question
In the following ray diagram the correctly marked angle are:
(a) ∠i and ∠e
(b) ∠A and ∠D
(c) ∠i, ∠e and ∠D
(d) ∠r, ∠A and ∠D
Solution
(d) ∠r, ∠A and ∠D
The angle between the normal and the incident ray is the angle of incidence.
The angle between the normal and the emergent ray is the angle of emergence.
The correctly marked angles are shown in the diagram below:
