(c) real and erect
(d) virtual and inverted

Answer 1

Answer:

option B - virtual and erect

Explanation:

When reflection of light occurs in a plane mirror, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. The image formed is behind the mirror. The incident ray and the reflected ray lie in the same plane. The image formed by a plane mirror is virtual and erect.

Answer 2

(b) virtual and erect is the right answer.

• The image and item are an identical distance from a flat replicate, the image length is similar to the item length, and the photograph is upright.
• Characteristics of the image formed via way of means of a plane mirror:
• In a plane mirror traits of the image fashioned are laterally inverted. It is virtual, erect, and of identical length because of the item.
• The length of the image is similar to the scale of the item.

The distance of the item from the plane mirror is similar to the space of the image from the plane mirror.
