I is a ray incident on a plane mirror. Keeping the incident ray fixed, the mirror is rotated by an angle `theta` about an axis passing through A perpendicular to the plane of the Fig. show that the refracted ray rotates through an angle `2theta`. Does your answer differ if the mirror is rotated about an axis passing through B?
