by law of reflection, the angle of incidence = the angle of reflection

so if the angle between incident ray and reflected ray is 50°

angle of incident + angle of reflection = 50°
2*angle of reflection = 50°
angle of reflection = 50/2 = 25°

As light reflects off a mirror the angle between the incident ray and reflected ray of light is 50°. What is the angle of reflection?
