🗑
show Reflected light rays are parallel to each other when parallel light rays strike a smooth surface  
🗑
Diffuse Reflection   show
🗑
show light rays actually emanate from the image  
🗑
show None of the light rays actuall emanate from the image  
🗑
show Image is upright, same size as you are, and located as far behind the mirror as you are in front of it  
🗑
show Converging mirror- Inside surface of the mirror is polished  
🗑
Converging Mirror   show
🗑
Convex Mirror   show
🗑
show Convex Mirror  
🗑
show Straight Line drawn through C (center of curvature)and the midpoint of the mirror  
🗑
