Laser beam-incident and reflected beams

Reference no: EM13539318

A laser beam is reflected by a plane mirror. It is observed that the angle between the incident and reflected beams is 24 degrees.

If the mirror is now rotated so that the angle of incidence increases by 6.0 degrees, what is the new angle between the incident and reflected beams?
