Answer 2

It is given that,

Focal length

f=−20cm

h  

i

​  

=3h  

o

​  

 

The image is three times the size of the object. So there are two cases.

Case 1. For real image

m=−  

u

v

​  

=−3

v=3u

Using mirror’s formula

f

​  

=  

v

​  

+  

u

=

u=

Case 2. For virtual image

m=  

u

−v

​  

=+3

v=−3u

Again using mirror’s formula

​  

=
