Reflection in Lambfoot Dub: angle subtended

 

Lambfoot Dub is a beautiful pool on the side of Great End. It was like a mirror.
It gave me the chance to test an idea I'd been thinking about recently. Presumably the angle subtended at the eye by the object should be the same as the angle subtended by the reflection. I used my favourite finger measuring trick to find out.


It's true.
