Understand the Problem
The image contains information about the reflection of light, including definitions, observations, and principles related to light behavior. It discusses concepts like luminous and illuminated objects, virtual images, the law of reflection, and how driving at night on wet roads can result in glare.
Answer
The angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection; the image is virtual.
The laws of reflection state that the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. The image formed by a plane mirror is virtual and located as far behind the mirror as the object is in front.
