A->b and C

B->b and C

C-> b and d

D->a and d

Magnification in the mirror, m = -v/u

m=-2 ⇒ v = 2u As v and a have same signs so the mirror is concave and image formed is real.

m = -1/2 ⇒ v = u/2 ⇒ concave mirror and real lmage.

m= +2 ⇒ v = -2u

As v and u have different signs but magnification is 2 so the mirror is concave and image formed is virtual.

m =+1/2 ⇒ v = -u/2

As v and u have different signs with magnification (1/2) so the mirror is convex and image formed is virtual.
