Angle of rotation= x(representing tita)
x= 30°
Degree of rotation of reflected ray = 2x
= 2×30°
=60°

the reflected ray rotates by 60 degrees. This can be determined by applying the principle of the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection being equal. Since the angle of incidence is 20 degrees and the mirror rotates by 30 degreesdegrees the angle of reflection also rotate by 30 degrees. Therefore in total reflection of the reflected ray is 20 degrees + 30 degrees = 60 degrees
