As it produces images which are reflected in a surface.
Virtual image because it is an image that forms where the light seems to come from. A plane mirror produces a virtual image that is upright and the same size as the object.

Convex lens produces both real and virtual images. But concave lens produces only virtual images for real objects. If object is virtual then real image could be produced by a concave lens.
Convex lenses form real images and concave lenses form virtual images. But there is one case in which convex lens also forms virtual images. This is when object is placed between Principal Focus "F" and Optical Centre "O"
Because the image is not real. The object is not really there, it's only virtual.
If an object lies within the focal length of a convex lens, its image will be erect, bigger in size and virtual. It will be on the same side of the object.
A mirror which produces an erect diminshed virtual image is a)concave mirror b)convex mirror c)plane mirror d)none of these
it can only produce virtual images because whenever an object is placed, a virtual image forms
in case of convex lense, when u place the object between focul length and pole, virtual image is formed behind the object at 25cm...
Bathroom mirror.
How to tell if an image is real or virtual is easy. A virtual image is outside object.
