Please refer to Figure 2. A light beam shines through air and then strikes a mirror, making an angle theta = 27.4 degrees with respect to the vertical, as shown. The reflected beam then strikes a pane of glass of thickness h = 1.00 cm, located a distance y= 44.7 cm from the mirror, and then exits the glass pane at the bottom, a horizontal distance x cm away from where it struck the mirror. What is the value of x?     23.5 cm     11.8 cm     32.9 cm     18.8 cm
