Virtual images can be magnified in size, reduced in size or the same size as the object. Virtual images can be formed by concave, convex and plane mirrors. Virtual images result when the reflected light rays diverge. Virtual images can be projected onto a sheet of paper. Real images are always located behind the mirror.
Real images can be either upright or inverted.
