Answer:

3rd diagram

Explanation:

From the laws of reflection, we understood that the angle of incidence in equal to the angle of reflection.

For example, if a ray of light strikes a mirror at 60°, it reflected at the same angle (i.e 60°)

Considering the diagram given in the question above,

The ray of light strikes the mirror at 40°. Therefore, the light will be reflected with the same angle (i.e 40°)

Thus, the 3rd diagram gives the correct answer to the question.
