Concept:A plane mirror always produces a virtual image that is laterally inverted and of the same size as the object.
Explanation:The image formed by a plane mirror cannot be projected on a screen, so it is virtual.
The left and right sides of the object appear swapped in the image – this is called lateral inversion.
The image appears at the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front, so it is not nearer to the mirror.
Therefore, among the given options, the image is virtual and laterally inverted.
Answer:Option C: virtual and is laterally inverted.
