When two mirrors face each other at a specific angle, they create a series of multiple reflections known as an infinite mirror effect. This effect occurs due to the reflection of light bouncing back and forth between the two mirrors. Each reflection appears slightly smaller and dimmer due to the loss of light with each bounce, creating a mesmerizing visual illusion of seemingly endless reflections.

Depending on the angle between them, you will get multiple reflections of any object between the mirrors.
If the mirrors meet at an angle of x degrees, an object placed between them should generate a maximum of (360/n) - 1 images. Parallel mirrors should, on that basis, produce an infinite number of images but because of microscopic flaws in the mirror, absorption, internal refraction etc, the images will degrade more or less exponentially.

A SEXTANT. It is an instrument of two mirrors, where the angle can be adjusted. The observer puts his eye to the eye glass, to see the two mirros. He first observes the given star, through one glass. Then adjusts the angle so he can see the horizon through the other glass. So he is seeing both the given star and the horizon. The given angle between the two mirrors will be used to estimate the latitude for navigational purposes. If the SUN is used as the observational star, then 1; a darkened mirror is used , to avoid blindness, and 2 ; the angle measured is the latitude.
A compound angle is described as a type of angle created by two other angles. These two other angles have to be mitered.
No because it only has a Right angle. It doesn't have an Obtuse angle, or other angles.
An angle of one is equal to an angle of the other.
