no they come from different rays so therefore they are not the same thing.

What is angle of incident if the reflected ray is 90 degree to incident ray?

The angle of incident is 45 degrees. The incident and reflected ray have the same magnitude and if the sum of the magnitudes is 90 degrees the incident is 45 degrees.


What is the angle of reflection if the angle between the incident ray and reflected ray is 140 degrees?

The angle of reflection is 140/2 = 70 degrees. The angle of reflection is the same as the the same as the incident.


A ray of light traveling from air to water is incident at an angle of 64 degrees Part of the light is reflected at an angle of what?

It is reflected at exactly the same angle, but on the other side of the normal at the point of incidence.


What is a line of reflection?

A line of reflection is a reflected line, often off of a mirror. If a flashlight sends a beam of light at a mirror (the light is called the incident beam), the angle at which it hits the mirror will equall the angle at which the reflected beam of light (called the reflected beam), exits the mirror. This is called the Law of Reflection. This is why light is reflected from a mirror at the same angle at which light struck its surface.

What is the angle of incident if the reflected ray is 24 degree to incident ray?

We know angle of incidence = angle of reflection. Hence, angle of incidence will be 24/2 = 12 degrees. (which is also angle of reflection)
