Two flat mirrors are connected to each other such that they make an angle of . A laser enters the system and first reflects off the bottom mirror, then the top mirror. When the beam exits it makes an angle with respect to the initial beam. What is the expression for the angle between the mirrors ?
 

Figure. shows a light bulb between two mirrors. One mirror produces a beam of light with parallel rays; the other keeps light from escaping without being put into the beam. Where is the filament of the light in relation to the focal point or radius of curvature of each mirror?

of reflection for this ray is 14.0°, find the initial angleofincidence.
2)
