Answer:
This is as a result of its features: Images are
a) upright
b) virtual
c) the same size as the object
d) the same height as the object
Explanation:
A plane mirror is used as a looking glass or make-up mirror in our homes because it shows the exact description of the object in front of it but the image is otherwise inverted.
This is as a result of the direct reflection of light on the plane surface. The image is inverted, erect, and has the same size and distance as the object.
But that cannot be said for a convex or concave mirror. the reflecting surface of both mirrors either bulges in our bulges out making the image appear smaller or bigger than the object. Sometimes, you may not even see the image
