The above statement is True.
A kaleidoscope is an optical instrument with two or more reflecting surfaces that are tilted toward one another. When viewed from the other end of these mirrors, one or more objects on one end appear as a consistent, symmetrical pattern as a result of repeated reflection. On the basis of multiple reflections, kaleidoscopes operate. It has numerous mirrors that are arranged at an angle (often 600) from one another. Usually, an equilateral triangle is formed by three rectangular mirrors placed 600 distances apart. Five of the objects are duplicated at the 600 angle, while two are duplicated at the 900 angle.
