An electromagnetic ray parallel to
the axis of the parabola (In
this case the y axis) is incident on the inner surface
of the parabola.
Point
M is the point at which the ray hits the parabolic dish. a is the
angle made by the incident ray and the normal
which is perpendicular to the tangent to the parabola at point M.
Incident and reflected angles are
equal.
