When measuring the angle of incidence and angle refraction the imaginary line drawn perpendicular to the surface at the point of incidence is called the?
normal.
What is the angle that light strikes a surface?
That is known as the angle of incidence. It is measured from the normal, which is a imaginary line perpendicular to the surface at the point where the light wave contacts the surface.
What is reference line in measuring the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection?
The reference line is the normal (perpendicular) to the surface.
The point at which light rays meet?
A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.
What is the law of incidence?
the law of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. draw a line as a surface. then draw a line going straight up from the center. now draw a line going from one side to the intersection of the surface and the dotted line. this line is the line of incidence. draw another line on the other side, like a mirror. this second line is the line of reflection. delete the middle line. the left line, the line of incidence, is mirrored to create the line of reflection. the angle from the incidence line to the surface is equal to the angle from the reflection line to the surface.

It's called the normal.
What is meant by the term normal in a ray diagram that represents reflection?
The line perpendicular to the reflecting surface at the point of incidence.
The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray and the line to the surface?
Line perpendicular to the surface.

What is a line perpendicular to a surface called?
The line perpendicular to a surface at a point is called the normal
How do you measure the angles of incidence and reflection?
They are the angles made by the incident ray and the reflected ray with the line perpendicular to the reflecting surface at the point of reflection.
What is the reference line in measuring the angles of incidence and angle reflection?
The reference line is the normal (perpendicular) to the surface.
