If a ray of light is incident on a plane mirror at an angle of `30^@`, then deviation produced by a plane mirror is .......

A

`30^@`

B

`60^@`

C

`90^@`

D

`120^@`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, D

According to the law of reflection
angle of incident = angle of reflection incident

From the geometry of figure,
angle of deviation
`=180^@-i-r=180^@-30^@-30^@=120^@`
