Two plane mirrors are inclined at 70^@. ...

Two plane mirrors are inclined at `70^@`. A ray incident on one mirror at incidence angle `theta` after reflection falls on the second mirror and is reflected from there parallel to the first mirror, The value of `theta` is

A

`50^(@)`

B

`45^(@)`

C

`30^(@)`

D

`55^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

From fig. `40^(@)+theta=90^(@) therefore =90^(@)-40^(@)=50^(@)`
