Solution

The correct option is D The image is erect
A plane mirror always forms an image which is virtual in nature (meaning that light rays meet behind the mirror or that light rays do not actually come from the image), erect and of the same shape and size as that of the object, it is reflecting. The image in plane mirror is formed as far behind the mirror as the object in front of it.

Hence, the correct answer is OPTION D.
