Solution

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. Images formed by concave mirror are upright with respect to the object and is also magnified. The virtual image produced by a convex mirror is one-quarter the size of the object.
