The Physics Classroom: Reflection/light Ray Model: Specular/diffuse Reflection
A series of incident rays and their corresponding reflected rays are depicted in the diagrams in this tutorial. Each ray strikes a surface with a different orientation; yet each ray reflects in accordance with the law of reflection.

The Physics Classroom: Ray Diagrams for Concave Mirrors Case B
Ray diagrams are useful tools for determining the location of an image as produced by a concave mirror. Of all the rays which emanate from the top of the object arrow and are incident to the mirror, there are two rays whose behavior at...
