B45°
C90°
D180°

Please explain how the deviation has happened at 180 degrees

Ans 3:

But wont the refraction of light in water play a role?

Thank You Mr.Rahul

Key Idea: Phenomenon of reflection is independent of medium. The deviation produced by combination of two plane mirrors is δ=2π−2θ =2π−2×π2 (θ=90o) ⇒ δ=π=180o. Hence, total deviation in incident ray is180o

but due to water refraction will also take place
