Two mirrors I and II are placed at right...

Two mirrors I and II are placed at right angle to each other as shown in the figure. Aray of light is incident on mirror I at an angle `theta` and then falls on mirror II after reflection. If angle of reflection for the ray reflected from mirror II is `65^@`, then the value of `theta` would be

A

`25^@`

B

`65^@`

C

`45^@`

D

`50^@`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

From the figure shown here ,
`x + theta + 90^@= 180^@`
`theta=180^@ - 90^@ -x`
`=90^@- 65^@ = 25^@`
