Understanding the Concepts
* Angle of Incidence: The angle between the incoming light ray (incident ray) and the normal (a line perpendicular to the mirror's surface).
* Angle of Reflection: The angle between the reflected light ray and the normal.
* Law of Reflection: The angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection.
Solving the Problem
1. Find the angle of incidence: Since the light ray is incident at 30 degrees *with the surface*, the angle of incidence is 60 degrees (90 degrees - 30 degrees).
2. Apply the Law of Reflection: The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. Therefore, the angle of reflection is also 60 degrees.
Answer: The angle of reflection will be 60 degrees.
