Little miss me9087's answer
if you are confused by the video- like i was:
Line up two mirrors- so that one is behind you and one is in front of you
You should be able to see the mirror behind you in the mirror in front
now wave your left hand if you look in you should see that in the mirror behind u, u r still waving your left hand NOT YOUR RIGHT.
It is because if you look in the mirror, it is north and south that have been mixed up. Your nose is north on your face but in the mirror it is south!

How you can see number of images formed by mirror?
As we place two mirrors inclined with each other then many images are formed. If @ is the angle of inclination then number of images is got by the formula [360/@] - 1 Hence as we place the two mirrors at right angles ie 90 degree then number of images will be 3 If both mirrors kept parallel facing each other then infinite images are formed.
