EXPLANATION:
Plane mirrors are simply flat mirrors without curves. These are polished surfaces coated with mercury such that they reflect most of the light falling on them.

- The image formed by a plane mirror is always virtual and erect.
- The image formed is ‘virtual’ because it is a copy of an object formed at the location from which the light rays appear to come.
- The distance of the image ‘behind’ the mirror is the same as the distance of the object in front of the mirror.
- The image and object are the equal distance from a plane mirror.
- Image is laterally Inverted means is inverted from left to right, like an image seen in a mirror. The right side of the object appears as its left side, and vice versa.

- The image size formed by the plane mirror is the same as the object size.
- The distance of the image ‘behind’ the mirror is the same as the distance of the object in front of the mirror.
Hence, from the above-mentioned points, it becomes clear that the image formation in the plane mirror is not real.
