What term describes a mirror that reflects light at different angles due to its rough surface?

The term that describes a mirror reflecting light at different angles due to its rough surface is diffuse reflection.

In diffuse reflection, light rays striking a rough surface scatter in many directions rather than being reflected uniformly. This occurs because the microscopic surface irregularities on the rough object cause the incoming light rays to scatter rather than reflect at a single angle. This results in a more diffused, less intense light that appears more uniform across the surface, which is why we can see objects in such surfaces under various lighting conditions without experiencing a sharp image.

This type of reflection is distinct from specular reflection, where light reflects off a smooth surface at a consistent angle, producing a clear, defined image. The other choices, while they suggest forms of reflection, do not accurately apply to the scattering behavior observed with rough surfaces.
