Fred? *
For

Answer 1

Answer:

Only Cy and Di could see the reflections.

Explanation:

Reflection is a property of light that makes it to travel through its initial path on hitting a plane surface. It is good to note that the angle of the incident ray to the surface is equal to the angle of reflection after hitting the surface. It can generally be classified into diffuse and specular.

A ray of light travels on a straight path, the images of the students are formed due to reflection of light at the plane surface. By ray constructions and observation, it would be observed that only Cy and Di could see the reflections of the four students. This is due to their positions with respect to the reflecting surface.
