Mirrors work by reflecting light, allowing us to see ourselves. When light bounces off our bodies and onto the mirror's surface, it creates an image of ourselves that we can see. This reflection helps us perceive what we look like from an outside perspective.
Visible light energy allows us to see our reflection in a mirror. When light strikes a mirror, it is reflected back and enters our eyes, allowing us to see ourselves.
In a plane mirror, we see a reflection of ourselves or objects placed in front of it. The image formed in a plane mirror is virtual, meaning it cannot be projected onto a screen. The reflection appears to be the same size and distance behind the mirror as the object is in front of it.
The true mirror phenomenon is when a mirror reflects our image as others see us, rather than the reversed image we are used to seeing. This can affect our perception of ourselves by showing us a more accurate representation of how we appear to others, which may challenge our self-perception and lead to a greater understanding of our true appearance.

You see your reflection in a mirror
The image will be reflected left to right. This is why most of us don't like our picture taken, because we look weird to ourselves because we have our left and right halves of our faces reversed. The image you see in a mirror is the opposite of what other people see of you. That image is not reflected left to right.
