...that is, either perpendicularly or obliquely; and experience has proved, that when light is reflected, the angle of reflection is always equal to the angle of incidence. Thus, fuppofe ab, jig. 25, pi. i, to be the furface of a plane mirror, If a ray of light fc falls perpendicularly... | |

...equal to B' MP, and the angle A mw, equal to the angle B m P. Toil This property is thus enounced : The angle of reflection is always equal to the angle of incidence. I have already taken notice of this ftriking property ; but my defign, at prefent, is to fhew what... | |
