Answer:
An image in a plane mirror doesn't change in size at all; it is always of the same size as that of the object. An image in a mirror can be seen without a screen, whereas it is mandatory to have a screen to form a shadow. Shadows are formed when opaque objects obstruct the path of light.

When an opaque object placed in the path of light, a dark patch formed, which is called a shadow. On the other hand, an image is formed when light is reflected from a mirror (plane or spherical) by refraction in lenses. Shadows are black, whereas images are colourful.
