What is the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection according to the Laws of Reflection?
angle of incidence = angle of reflection
angle of incidence = 90 degrees
angle of incidence < angle of reflection
angle of incidence > angle of reflection

Thomas Young
Willebrord Snell
Christian Huygens
Isaac Newton
What is the relationship between the refractive indices of two media and the angles of incidence and refraction according to Snell's Law?
n1 = n2
n1tanθi = n2tanθt
n1cosθi = n2cosθt
