Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

The correct options are
A

when the light rays meet after reflection

B

when light appears to be meeting at an imaginary point

Image of a point is formed when light rays coming from that point meet on a screen or they appear to be meeting at some imaginary point. When light rays actually meet, a real image is formed and if light rays appear to meet at some imaginary point, then a virtual image is formed.
