Which of the following is the correct mirror image of the word "ALEX"?
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is C
The image formed by a plane mirror is always virtual (image cannot be obtained on a screen), erect, laterally-inverted, at same distance and of the same size as the object.
The letters which are vertically symmetric will form an image that appears exactly like the letter itself in a plane mirror.
Example: "A" and "X" in the word "ALEX".
The letters which are not vertically symmetric will appear laterally inverted.
Example: "L" and "E" in the word "ALEX".
The order of letter's images will be decided based on the distance of each letter from the mirror.
