Solution

  1. In order to see the full image of a person, the minimum size of the mirror should be one-half the person's height.
  2. ​As we see the objects due to reflection of light and the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.
  3. The size of the object that can be seen in a mirror is only dependent on the size of the mirror only.

Thus,

Option A) he will see his full image is the correct option.
