In the event that you investigate a plane mirror, you can find that the size of the picture is same as that of the object. in the event that the object is upright, the picture is additionally upright, of the same size and does not change in estimate by moving the mirror towards or far from the face.
In the event that you investigate a concave mirror, you can see a developed picture when put close and can see a reversed picture when kept away if the object is upright, the picture is likewise upright yet amplified and increments in a measure by moving the mirror far from the face.
A convex mirror dependably frames a little and erect picture if the object is upright, the picture is additionally upright yet lessened and diminishes in estimate by moving the mirror far from the face.

Characteristics of Image Formed by Plane, Concave and Convex Mirror:
1. Plane Mirror:
The image formed by plane mirror is at the same distance as that of the distance of an object and is of the same size. Also the imaged formed are virtual, upright and left-right reversed. One of the important characteristics of images formed by plane mirror is that the dimensions of the image are the same as that of the dimensions of an object.
2. Concave Mirror:
Concave mirror produces both real and virtual images. If the image is real then it is inverted and is found infront of the mirror. However, if the image is virtual, then it is upright and is found behind the mirror. Also the size of the image can be smaller, larger or of the same size as that of an object.
3. Convex Mirror:
The image formed by convex mirror is virtual, upright and is located behind the mirror. The size of the image is smaller as compared to the size of an object.
