Answer:

The correct answer is d.

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of reflection states that an incident ray on a reflecting surface will be reflected at an angle equal to the angle of incidence, where each angle is measured concerning the line normal to the surface.

In the graph that indicates what happens when light interacts with matter and is reflected, you make the mistake of not following the law of reflection in scattering.

Have a nice day!
