ANSWER


\begin{equation*} 35\degree \end{equation*}

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the angle of reflection of the ray of light.

According to the law of reflection, the angle of reflection must be equal to the angle of incidence of a ray of light:


\theta_r=\theta_i

Therefore, the angle of reflection of the ray of light is:


\theta_r=\theta_i=35\degree

That is the answer.
