Place two plane mirrors along the lines A, B and C,D in such a way that these mirrors are at right angles to each other. Now place a pen in between the two mirrors and tell how many images of pen are formed? you will find that three images are formed for an object placed in between mirrors at right angles to each other

1. How many images of pen are formed?
