Ray, it has a stop/start point (the flashlight), and it goes on "forever."
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.
The angle between the ray and the perpendicular to the mirror (NOT the mirror itself), at the point where the ray hits the mirror is called the angle of incidence.
The vertex of an angle is the point where the two rays meet. An example is angle ABC. the two rays are ray BA and ray BC. The two rays meet at point B.

A ray of light from a flashlight is a narrow beam of light that travels in a straight line away from the flashlight's source. It illuminates objects in its path and creates shadows when blocked by an opaque object. The intensity of the light decreases with distance from the flashlight.
Solar angle refers to the angle at which the Sun's rays strike a surface. Beam spreading is the process by which a concentrated beam of light or energy spreads out as it moves away from its source, resulting in a wider area being illuminated or affected.
A "beam" or "ray" of light would best describe the light that shines from a flashlight.
A beam of light from a flashlight can be described as a cone, as it spreads out in a conical pattern from the source.
It is the angle at which a beam of light strikes an object.
The angle of incidence of a ray (or light or other electromagnetic radiation) to a surface is the angle between the incoming ray and the normal - which is perpendicular to the surface at the point of incidence
An angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected ray and the surface normal (a line perpendicular to the surface) at the point of reflection. It is equal to the angle of incidence (angle between the incident ray and the surface normal) in accordance with the law of reflection.
incident ray and the normal to the surface at the point of incidence.
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.
