 SAMPLE PROBLEM NO. 1
The diagram shows a ray of light being reflected
by a plane mirror MN. Which one of the following
statements is completely correct ?

A. LP is the incident ray, PR is the reflected ray and x is the angle of

reflection.
B. LP is the reflected ray, x is the angle of incidence and y is the angle of
reflection.
C. LP is the incident ray, x is the angle of incidence and y is the angle of
reflection.
D.PQ is the normal, x = y, and PR is the incident ray.
 SAMPLE PROBLEM NO. 2
The diagram shows a ray of light reflected in a plane
mirror. What is the angle of reflection?
 SAMPLE PROBLEM NO. 3
In the figure below, ray AB will be reflected twice.
Find the angle of reflection in the second reflection.
 MIRRORS
• A mirror is a reflective surface that
light does not pass through, but
bounces off of and this produces
an image. Mirrors are made by
putting a thin layer of silver nitrate
or aluminum behind a flat piece of
glass.
 HISTORY
• Mirrors made of polished copper later popped up in Mesopotamia (now Iraq) and Egypt from
4000 to 3000 B.C. About 1,000 years later, people in Central and South America began
making mirrors out of polished stone, while Chinese and Indian mirror makers crafted them
out of bronze.
• The silvered-glass mirrors found throughout the world today first got their start in Germany
almost 200 years ago.

• In 1835, German chemist Justus von Liebig developed a process for applying a thin layer of
metallic silver to one side of a pane of clear glass. This technique was soon adapted and
improved upon, allowing for the mass production of mirrors.
• Modern mirrors may have originated in the 19th century, but mirrors in general have actually
been around for much longer. According to a 2006 review by vision scientist Dr. Jay Enoch in
the journal Optometry and Vision Science, people in Anatolia — modern-day Turkey —
manufactured the first mirrors out of ground and polished obsidian (volcanic glass) about
8,000 years ago.
 TYPES OF MIRROR
1. Plane Mirror — These are flat mirrors. This is
the most common type of mirror used in
bedrooms and bathrooms.

1. Curved/Spherical Mirror — reflecting surface

in which its surface is a section of sphere.
i. Concave Mirror
ii. Convex Mirror
