When a ray of light is incident on a mirror, it gets reflected in accordance with the following laws of reflection:
First law: The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal at the point of incidence all three, lie in the same plane.
Second law: The angle of incidence (i) is equal to the angle of reflection (r).
i.e., ∠i = ∠r.
