Answer 2

Lateral inversion:

• When the left of the object appears in the right of the mirror and vice versa.
• This phenomenon is called as lateral inversion.
• It is due to direction of the light that falls on mirror from object.
• This phenomenon gives a illusion that a person is standing in front of us with right and left reversed.
• This phenomenon stand out less for three dimensional objects than two dimensional objects.

Example of lateral inversion:

1. Write the word ‘MIRROR’ in a sheet.
2. Place the sheet before the mirror.
3. Reflection observed in the mirror is ‘MIЯЯOЯ’.
4. This is the lateral inversion of letters.
