According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are equal angles.

Alja [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

Explanation:

Reflection is defined as the repropagation of light rays incident on a surface. An incident light is a light striking the surface of a plane mirror at an angle to the mirror. This incident light will reflect out at the same angle it strikes the plane. This angle is known as the angle of glance (g). The ray perpendicular to the plane surface is called the normal ray.

Therefore, the angle between the incident ray and the normal ray will be the angle of incidence (i) and the angle between the reflected ray and the normal ray will be the angle of reflection (r). Since the angle the incident ray made with the plane surface is equal to the angle that the reflected ray made with the plane surface then our angle of incidence will also be equal to the angle of reflection according to the second law of reflection i.e i=r.

i = r = 90°-g

Three sticks are arranged to form a right triangle. If the lengths of the three sticks are 0.47 m, 0.62 m and 0.78 m, what are t
Svetradugi [14.3K]

The angles in the triangle are 91 degrees, 53 degrees and 36 degrees respectively.

<h3>What is the cosine rule?</h3>

From the cosine rule we know that;

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcosC

Since;

a = 0.47 m

b =  0.62 m

c =  0.78 m

Then;

(0.78)^2 = (0.47)^2 + (0.62)^2 - 2(0.47 * 0.62)cosC

0.61 = 0.22 + 0.38 - 0.58 cosC

0.61 - ( 0.22 + 0.38) = - 0.58 cosC

0.01 = - 0.58 cosC

C = cos-1(0.01/-0.58)

C = 91 degrees

Using the sine rule;

b/Sin B = c/Sin C

0.62/sinB = 0.78/sin 91

0.62/Sin B = 0.78

B = sin-1 (0.62//0.78)

B = 53 degrees

Angle A is obtained from the sum of angles in a triangle;

180 - (91 + 53)

A = 36 degrees

solong [7]

Answer: Erosion or water level rising

Explanation: Erosion happens when water goes against a rock and breaks it down little by little so these mountains may have once been above water but became eroded. Also, people might’ve added so much pollution into the ocean that the water level rose or there was an increase in the population of large animals. Sorry for my very long answer lol
