Summary

Description
English: A mirror reverses an image in the direction of the normal angle of incidence, creating a virtual image that appears to exist behind the mirror's surface. The real image (blue) reflects back to the observer (red), and the arrows indicate the direction of the image. The virtual image (purple) appears to face in the opposite direction.
