The Physics Classroom: Reflection and Mirrors: Name That Image Interactive
Students participate in this skill-building activity where they explore how the location of an object in front of a curved mirror affects the characteristics of the projected image.

The Physics Classroom: Reflection/ray Model of Light: Convex Mirror Images
Students explore three different ray diagrams for objects positioned at different locations along the principal axis in a convex mirror.

The Physics Classroom: Reflection/ray Model of Light: Reflection/image Convex
In this physics tutorial, we will follow a pattern of inquiry for convex mirrors: investigating how convex mirrors reflect light and produce images.

The Physics Classroom: Image Formation for Concave Mirrors: Case B
A reference page that explores how an image is formed in a concave mirror. Page includes a ray diagram that shows the geometrical lines of sight.

The Physics Classroom: Refraction/ray Model of Light: Image Formation Revisited
Students take an in-depth look at the physics behind image formation.

The Physics Classroom: Reflection/ray Model of Light: Ray Diagrams Convex
Students learn two rules of reflection as it has to do with convex mirrors. These two rules will greatly simplify the task of determining the image locations for objects placed in front of convex mirrors.
