A man standing extremely close in front of a special mirror finds his image having a very small head, a fat body but legs of similar size. Hence,
- The top part of the mirror is convex, as it forms virtual, erect and small-sized image.
- The middle of the mirror is concave, as it forms virtual, erect and large-sized image.
- The bottom of the mirror is a plane mirror, as it forms virtual, erect and image of the same size as the object.
