When two mirrors are placed at an angle of 90º to each other, how many images will be formed when an object is placed in front of the mirrors
5
4
3
2

Explanation

When two mirror are inclined at an angle θ, the number of images formed, n = \(\frac{360}{\theta}\) − 1

∴ since \(\theta\) = 90o

∴ \(\frac{360}{\theta}\) − 1

= 4 − 1

= 3
