Solution
The correct option is D 3
If two plane mirrors are placed together on one of their edges so as to form a right angle mirror system, 3 images are formed.n=36090−1=3
Right angle mirrors will allow a maximum of two reflections of light from the object. But as the angle decreases, three, four, and even more reflections can occur. Below is the diagrammatic representation.
