Answer:

The light waves, or rays, that we see are often reflections, like those from a mirror. Light from the sun or from a lamp bounces off you, then goes to a mirror, and reflects off the mirror and back to your eyes. That's the ray you see.

A flat or plane mirror reflects light rays in a very specific way, following the

law of reflection

Answer:The law of reflection states that the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface of the mirror all lie in the same plane.

Explanation: the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. Both angles are measured with respect to the normal to the mirror.
