Solution

The correct option is C It remains the same
If 'X' moves few steps closer to the mirror the size of its image remains same as it is a plane mirror.
Images formed by plane mirrors are virtual, upright, left-right reversed, the same distance from the mirror as the object's distance, and the same size as the object.
