Plane Mirrors starts at 7 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Plane Mirrors.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 9
A pencil is placed in front of a plane mirror. If the pencil is 15 cm from the mirror, where will its image appear to be?
