A point source of light is placed in front of a plane mirror, then :
all the reflected rays will meet at a point when produced backward
only the reflected rays making a small angle with the mirror will meet at a point when produced backward
light of different colours will make different images
only the reflected rays close to the normal will meet at a point when produced backward
