Question

Show the formation of images when an object is placed in between the two mirrors held at right angles.

Answer 1

number of images formed= n=360/θ-1

as two mirrors are perpendicular to each other

⇒θ=90 degrees=360/90  - 1
=4-1
=3

so total three images will be formed.

Please refer the attachment for the image formed.
