Detailed Solution

[45][46]
The above statement is False[47][48].
A plane mirror has a focal length equal to infinite, and therefore, the image distance is equal to the object distance. Also, the plane mirror shows lateral inversion, which means the object's left side is the right side of the image, and the object's right side is the image's left side. The image formed by the plane mirror is virtual, the image size is equal to the object size, and the image is upright.
The corrected statement would be, the image formed by a plane mirror is virtual and erect.
