Answer:
The angle between the two plane mirrors inclined to each other can be 90° (asymmetrically) or 72° (symmetrically).
Explanation:
The number of images of vase formed is 4. Hence, n=4.
If the vase is kept asymmetrically, then the angle between the mirrors can be found by the formula:
n=360°/Ф
∅=360°/n
∅=360°/4
∅=90°
If the vase is kept symmetrically, then the angle between the mirrors can be found by the formula:
n=360°/Ф-1
n+1=360°/∅
4+1=360°/∅
∅=360°/5
∅=72°
Thus, the angle between the plane mirrors can be 90° when the vase is kept asymmetrically or it can be 72° when the vase is kept symmetrically
