Question

why are multiple images in when two plane mirrors are placed at an angle what will be the number of images seen when two plane mirrors are placed at an angle of 36 degrees to each other

Answer 1

Because of right angle mirror systems, there is a wealth of other multiple mirror systems that involve two or more mirrors. If two plane mirrors are placed together on one of their edges so as to form a right angle mirror system and then the angle between them is decreased, some interesting observations can be made. One observes that as the angle between the mirrors decreases, the number of images that can be seen increases. In fact as the angle between the mirrors approaches 0 degrees (i.e., the mirrors are parallel to each other), the number of images approaches infinity.
When two mirrors are kept at an angle and an object placed in between the mirrors, multiple images are formed due to reflection from one mirror on to the other. The number of images of the object formed depends on the angle between the two mirrors.
