It makes the same angle, on the other side of the normal, at the point of incidence.

What is the angle of incidence if a reflected wave bounces off a mirror with an angle of reflection equal to 55º?
If a light ray is reflected from a flat mirror with a reflection angle of 55o then the angle of incidence was also 55o. When reflecting from a mirrored surface, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection.
If the angle of incidence is 23 degrees what would the angle of reflection be if the light was reflection be if the light was reflected from a plane mirror?
Also 23 degrees.
What happens to the light rays as they hit the mirror?
They are reflected at the angle of incidence.
What is the reflected angle for a light beam hitting a mirror?
The angle of the reflected ray with the normal line to the surface of the mirror is the same as the angle of incidence. Snell's law.
When a light ray is reflected by a mirror is the angle of the light ray and the reflected ray different or the same?
Angle of Incidence = Angle of ReflectionThis is only true if the angle of incidence is greaterthan the critical angle.
What is the angle if a wave bounces off a mirror with the reflection of 55 degrees?
The angle of incidence is also 55 degrees because it is reflected

Also 23 degrees.
What happens to the light rays as they hit the mirror?
They are reflected at the angle of incidence.
What is the difference between object distance and image distance?
image distance is the distance from the point of incidence on the mirror, the where the image is reflected to.object distance is the distance from the actual object being reflected to the point of incidence on the mirror where it's reflected as an image.
A ray of light is incident towards a plane mirror at an angle of 30-degrees with the mirror surfaceWhat will be the angle of reflection?
The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. It will be at 30o to the surface of the mirror (from the opposite edge) ^ This answer is not correct for SURFACE, but is correct for RELATIVE ^
Creates an image that appears behind the mirror as light bounces back and forth between the mirror and the object being reflected?
plane mirror
How do you see your image reflected in a mirror?
You see it when your image strikes light and the light bounces off you then off the mirror to your eyes.
What is the reflected angle for a light beam hitting a mirror?
The angle of the reflected ray with the normal line to the surface of the mirror is the same as the angle of incidence. Snell's law.
Light bounces off of objects causing a?
When light bounces off an object we say it is reflected just like how you see your reflection from the light that bounces off of a mirror.
When a light ray is reflected by a mirror is the angle of the light ray and the reflected ray different or the same?
Angle of Incidence = Angle of ReflectionThis is only true if the angle of incidence is greaterthan the critical angle.
When light bounces off of a shiny surface what is it said to be?
When light bounces of a shiny surface, such as a mirror, this is called specular reflection.(Diffuse reflection is when light bounces of a rough surface, such as a wall. You can tell it's a rough surface because you can't see your reflection.)
