A couple of questions about rainbows....?

The secondary rainbow forms when light is reflected inside the raindrops. The primary rainbow forms from refraction and exiting the drop. The secondary rainbow forms when light is reflected back into the drop again before exiting. The second reflection inverts the colours, but not the direction of the arc.
