Answer:
Explanation:
If by perpendicular you mean a 90° angle and if the candle is centered, then you will see 3 candle reflections.
There is a mathematical equation to give you the number of reflections based on the angle of the mirrors and the position of the object reflected.
N=(360/Ф)-1.
N being the number of reflections.
The Ф is the angle degree the mirrors are set. So if the mirrors are set at a 90° angle the equation is N=(360/90)-1 and the answer is 3.

Answer: 1) 2 images can be formed
2) We can find number of images formed by such arrangement by using a formula. Edit: When n is an odd integer. n=360/x (Object is kept asymmetrically). ... So we get 3 images when the two mirrors are placed at 90 degree.
