Explanation

$${1 \over v} + {1 \over u} = {1 \over f}$$

$$ \Rightarrow $$ $${1 \over v} = {1 \over f} - {1 \over u}$$ = $${{u - f} \over {uf}}$$

$$ \Rightarrow $$ v = $${{uf} \over {u - f}}$$

m = -$${v \over u}$$ = $${f \over {f - u}}$$

as u approaches f, m approaches infinity

And at u = 2f, m = –1 or |m| = 1
