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. Real images can be magnified in size, reduced in size or the same size as the object. Real images can be formed by concave, convex and plane mirrors.
Real images result when the reflected light rays diverge.
Real images can be projected onto a sheet of paper. Virtual images formed by mirrors are always upright images. On the diagram below, sketch the path the light ray would take as it travels. Locate the images of the objects below and state which images can be seen by the eye. Locate all of the images formed by the mirror systems below.
