The angle of incidence is also known as the angle of reflection.</span></span>

<span><span /></span><span> Angle of reflection = Angle of incidence</span>

<span /><span>T<span><span>he ray of light approaching the mirror is called the incident ray. The ray of light that leaves the mirror is called the reflected ray.   </span></span></span>

Under what condition will a glass lens placed in a transparent medium becomes invisible??
Viktor [21]

Answer:

A lens placed in a transparent liquid becomes invisible because when refractive index of the material of the lens is equal to the refractive index of the liquid in which lens is placed under this condition no bending of light takes place when it travels from liquid to the lens, so both will start behaving like both are same things.
