Chapter 24.2, Problem 3aTH
A pencil is placed in front of a plane mirror as shown in the top view diagram below.
- Use ray tracing to determine the location of the image of the pencil. Use a protractor and a straightedge to make an accurate drawing.
Clearly indicate the entire image on your diagram.
