What type of image is formed by a mirror if m=5.2

A magnified image

Explanation:

Magnification is defined as the ratio of the image distance to the object distance or the image height to the object height. The image formed by an object is magnified when the magnification is greater than 1 and diminished when it is less than 1.

If the magnification of the mirror is therefore 5.2, this means that the image is 5.2 times larger than the object i.e the image is a magnified image. Note that the information given cannot allow us to determine whether the image is virtual or real since we are not told if it is an upright or inverted image.

The magnification value therefore only gives information maybe the image is magnified or diminished.
