OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the lesson, the Grade 10 students should be able to:
• identify the uses o£ concave and convex
mirrors identify the uses of concave and convex
lenses
• explain the ways in which the properties of
mirrors determine their use in
optical instruments (e.g., cameras and
binocularsI;
• determine how the location of the object from the lenses/mirmrs affect the
image formed
 M I R RO RS
A mirror is a reflective surface that
bounces off light, producing either a real
image or a virtual image. When an object is
placed in front or a mirror, the image of the
same object is seen in the mirror.
Mirrors come also in three types, namely:
plane mirror, convex (diverging) and concave
(converging) mirrors.
