Aat the focus
Bat infinity
Cat the pole
Dbetween F and C
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. at infinity
1. Rays from an object at F become parallel to the axis after reflection.
2. Parallel reflected rays never meet at a finite distance.
3. So the image is said to form at infinity, highly enlarged.
