Image formed by reflection from a plane mirror is
(a) real and inverted (b) virtual and erect (c) real and erect (d) virtual and invented
(b) virtual and erect
Explanation
The image formed by reflection from a plane mirror is virtual, erect (upright), of the same size as the object, at the same distance behind the mirror and laterally inverted.
The virtual images form when the light rays appear to meet at a definite point, after reflection from the mirror, and it cannot be projected or obtained on a screen.
