Below diagram shows the reflected ray:

The diagram shows an incident ray AO and the normal ON on a plane mirror. Draw the reflected ray. State the law you use to draw the direction of the reflected ray. Light Energy, Concise Physics Solutions ICSE Class 7.

Law used to draw the direction of the reflected ray is:

The angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection.
