If light strikes a body of water at an angle of 55 degrees the angle of reflection will be

The angle which an incident line or ray makes with a perpendicular to the surface at the point of incidence and makes with the surface from 90 degree.
To find the angle of incidence we have the formula,
The angle of incidence = 90 degrees - angle ray makes with the surface .
Angle of incidence = 90 degrees -55 degree
The angle of incidence = 45 degree

The Angle of reflection

The angle made by a reflected ray with a perpendicular to the reflecting surface.
since the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection.
The angle of incidence = The angle of reflection= 45 degree.
The angle of reflection will be 45 degree

The angle of reflection will be "55°".

Given that:

Light strikes at,

55°

The angle of reflection seems to be the angle that is formed between both the incident ray as well as the normal somewhere at a point where even the incident ray meets the mirrored surfaces.

So that we can say that,

→ [tex]Angle \ of \ incidence = Angle \ of \ reflection[/tex]

here,

→ Angle of incidence is 55°.

Thus the above response is correct.
