The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "A ________ is a flat, smooth reflective surface," we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Definition We need to identify what type of surface is described as "flat" and "smooth" and is also reflective. ### Step 2: Consider Different Types of Mirrors - **Spherical Mirrors**: These include concave and convex mirrors. They are not flat; they have a curved surface. - **Plane Mirrors**: These are defined as flat mirrors with a smooth reflective surface. ### Step 3: Identify the Correct Answer Since a plane mirror is flat and has a smooth reflective surface, it fits the description provided in the question. ### Conclusion The answer to the question is: A **Plane Mirror** is a flat, smooth reflective surface. ---
