Correct Answer - C
`(1)/(v)+(1)/(u)=(1)/(f)implies(1)/(v)+(1)/(-25)=(1)/(-10)`
`(1)/(v)=-(1)/(10)+(1)/(25)=(-5+2)/(50)=(-3)/(50)`
`v=-(50)/(3)`cm
`m=-(v)/(u)=-((-50)/(3))/(-25)=-(2)/(3)`
`("Area of image")/("area of object")=m^2implies(A_i)/(A_O)=(-(2)/(3))^2`
`(A_i)/(3xx3)=(4)/(9)impliesA_i=4cm^2`
