Given h0 = 5 cm, u = – 25 cm, f = 10 cm, v = ?

By lens formula

1/v - 1/u = 1/f …. (i)

By putting the given values in eq. (i) with their sign conventions

1/v = 1/10 - 1/25

 We get, v = 50/3 cm

image is formed at  50/3 cm away from the mirror on right side i.e. real

m = v/u = h1/h0

-50/3/25 = h1/5

We get, h1 =  -10/3 

Here, m is less than unity and also negative so image will be diminished, inverted and real in nature.
