Two plans mirrors are inclined to each other at some angle .A ray of light incident at `30^(@)`on one,after reflection form the other retraces its path .The angles between the mirrors is:
`30^(@) (2) 45^(@) (3) 60^(@) (4) 90^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`30`


`/_i=/_r=30^(@)`
`:./_OIQ=60^(@)`
