1: Two people stand 3.0 m away from a large plane mirror and are 5.0 m apart from each other in a dark room. At what angle of incidence should one of them shine a flashlight on the mirror so that the reflected beam strikes the other person at the same height that the flashlight is held? Assume the person with the flashlight holds it near his body?

2: Two plane mirrors, M1 and M2, are placed together as illustrated in the figure(see attachment)

a. If the angle between the mirrors is 70 degree and the angle of incidence of a light ray incident on M1 is 35 degree, what is the angle of reflection from M2?
