Multiple images for two-mirrors


1. Locate the images: P
1, P2, P12, P21, P121 and P212. Label all images of P1 in one color and all images of P2 in a second color.

 

2. Locate P1 and P2. Draw in the rays which are used to sight each of these images. Use one color for both rays for P1 and a second color for the rays for P2. Finally, locate P12 and P21.

 

 

3. Locate P2 and P21. Then ONLY draw in the rays which are used to sight P21. Use one color for the ray that enters the top of the eye, a second color for the one that enters the bottom of the eye.
