Laws Of Reflection

The "Laws of Reflection" is a fundamental principle in geometrical optics that specifies the directional behavior of light rays upon encountering a reflective surface, distinguishing itself from other optical phenomena by asserting that the incident ray, reflected ray, and surface normal lie in the same plane and that the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection.
