उत्तर

(a) Angle between the mirrors,  θ = 90o

Now, n = 360o / θo = 360o / 90= 4, which is even.

Hence number of images formed will be (n-1); i.e., 4 - 1 = 3 images

(b) Angle between the mirrors,  θ = 60o

Now, n = 360o / θo = 360o / 60= 6, which is even.

Hence number of images formed will be (n-1); i.e., 6-1 = 5 images
