...according to the Nature of the Rays of all Luminous Bodies, with whom (as we are taught by Optics) the Angle of Reflection is always equal to the Angle of Incidence. Wherefore all the Rays in general being confined and refifted by the Body they would project, and having... | |

...the fides of the figure b, myn,p'y and A, 2, 3, 4, A, will be the path of the moving body A, becaufe the angle of reflection is always equal to the angle of incidence, and the center of the ball, perpendicular to the point of contract ; hence by drawing 2 F, 3 G and... | |

...that is, either perpendicularly or obliquely; and experience has proved, that when light is reflected, the angle of reflection is always equal to the angle of incidence. Thus, fuppofe ab, jig. 25, pi. i, to be the furface of a plane mirror, If a ray of light fc falls perpendicularly... | |

...equal to B' MP, and the angle A mw, equal to the angle B m P. Toil This property is thus enounced : The angle of reflection is always equal to the angle of incidence. I have already taken notice of this ftriking property ; but my defign, at prefent, is to fhew what... | |
