This document provides directions for students to complete a table calculating image properties such as location, orientation, size and type using the mirror equation and ray diagrams for concave and convex mirrors with a focal length of 15 cm and objects placed at various distances in front of the mirrors. Students are to determine the image distance, whether the image is upright or inverted, if it is the same size, reduced, or enlarged compared to the object, and if the image is real or virtual for each row in the table.
