• A. Enlarged
• B. Diminished
• C. Double size of the object
• D. None

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To solve the problem, we need to understand the behavior of a convex mirror.

1. Properties of a Convex Mirror:
A convex mirror always forms an image that has the following characteristics:

• The image is virtual.
• The image is always diminished (smaller than the object).
• The image is upright (erect).
• The image is formed behind the mirror, regardless of the object's distance.

2. Conclusion:
For a convex mirror, the size of the image is always diminished compared to the size of the object.

Final Answer:
The size of the image formed by a convex mirror is always $ {\text{Diminished}} $.
