When an oblique shock hits a wall at what angle does it reflect?

It hits and reflects at an angle sufficient to cause the flow velocity to maintain tangency at the wall. To compute the angle, figure out the conditions downstream of the primary shock, and then the oblique reflection will occur at an angle sufficient to turn the flow back to be tangent to the wall downstream of the reflection.
