– The image is formed behind the mirror.
– The image is virtual (cannot be projected on a screen).
– The image is erect (upright relative to the object).
– The image is magnified (larger than the object).
An image is formed at infinity by a concave mirror only when the object is placed exactly at the principal focus (F). When the object is between F and P, the image is virtual and located at a finite distance behind the mirror.
