Two types of reflection are specular reflection, which occurs when light rays are reflected off a smooth surface at the same angle they arrived, and diffuse reflection, where light rays are reflected off a rough surface in various directions.

the two ways in which a surface can reflect light are regular reflection and diffuse reflection.
The two types of reflection of light are regular reflection, where light rays reflect off a smooth surface at the same angle they hit it, and diffuse reflection, where light rays reflect off a rough or uneven surface in different directions.
It is called reflection when light bounces off objects. Reflection is the change in direction of a wavefront at an interface between two different media, so that the wavefront returns into the medium from which it originated.
The two rays involved in reflection are the incident ray, which is the ray of light approaching the reflective surface, and the reflected ray, which is the ray of light that bounces off the surface after reflection.
The types are: a. regular reflection, where a beam coming from a specific direction is reflected at another specific direction, and: b. diffuse reflection, where the beam is scattered to all directions.
