Question

For a spherical mirror, a normal line at a point is drawn _____.

  1. From the point at any angle
  2. Perpendicular to the tangent at that point
  3. Parallel to the tangent at that point Convex lens
  4. None of the above

hintHint:

Perpendicular to the tangent at that point

The correct answer is: Perpendicular to the tangent at that point


    for a sperical mirror we can draw a perpendicular to the point on the mirror, which will give us the normal.
