58 °

Step-by-step explanation

Reflection is when light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface

so,According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection.

therefore,

if the angle of incidende =58°

then


angle\text{ of reflection =}58\text{ \degree}

therefore, the answer is 58 °

I hope this helps you
