You lay a mirror flat on the floor with one edge against a wall and aim a laser at the mirror. The ray reflects from the mirror and strikes the wall. The plane of the incident and reflected rays is perpendicular to the wall. The ray from the laser strikes the mirror 48.5 cm from the wall, and the reflected ray strikes the wall 35.5 cm above the mirror. Find the angle of incidence of the laser ray on the mirror.
