when the ray of light coincides on the surface, it makes an angle with the normal ( imagininary line perpendicular to the surface) this angle is called angle of incidence. When the light reflects backs after striking the surface it makes angle with the normal, this angle is called angle of reflection.

What is the size of the angle of incidence and reflection?
Angle of incidence can be anything. Angle of reflection is the same as angle of incidence.
What are value of angle of incidence and angle of reflection for normal incidence of light on mirror?
Both are zero. Thereby it obeys the second law of reflection ie angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection.
What equals the angle of reflection?
the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection
If a wave hits a smooth surface at an angel of incidence of 40 degrees the angle of reflection is?
The angle of reflection is 40 degrees. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
The rule that the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence?
Law of Reflection
When is angle of incidence equal to angle of reflection?
The angle of incidence is ALWAYS equal to the angle of reflection! This is one of the laws of reflection.
The angle of reflection is equal to the .......?
The angle of incidence
What is the size of the angle of incidence and reflection?
Angle of incidence can be anything. Angle of reflection is the same as angle of incidence.
What is the difference of angle of incidence ad the angle of reflection?
0(zero) Angle of incidence = angle of reflection
What of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence?
The angle of reflection.
What is the angle between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection?
the angle of incidence is the initial ray angle and the angle of reflection is the reflected ray angle
What does the law of reflected state?
light's angle of incidence is equal to the angle of its reflection. That the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection
How is the angle of incidence of light ray related to the angle of reflection?
For a smooth surface, the angle of incidence is the same as the angle of reflection.
What are value of angle of incidence and angle of reflection for normal incidence of light on mirror?
Both are zero. Thereby it obeys the second law of reflection ie angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection.
