The image formed by a plane mirror is always (1) Real and erect, (2) Virtual and erect, (3) Real and inverted, (4) Virtual and inverted

Answer: (2) Virtual and erect

Explanation- The plane mirrors reflect images in their normal proportions but changed from left to right. Plane mirrors are widely used. The images formed are virtual and erect. The size of the image and object remain the same. The images are inverted. The distance of the image from the mirror will also be the same as the distance of the object from it.
