Flat mirrors are the commonest type, and provide a reflection of the subject. Useful for shaving in and for checking my clothes. They just reflect the light that falls on them.
An interesting experiment you can do is to get a couple of flat mirrors and erect them at 90o to each other. If you look in these, you will see a reflection of you that is as other folk see you. The best version of this uses frameless mirrors.
What else can I help you with?
What do you call flat mirrors?
A flat mirror is also called a plane mirror
What type of mirror makes security mirrors?
Convex mirrors are commonly used as security mirrors. They provide a wide field of view and help in eliminating blind spots by reflecting a larger area than flat mirrors. These mirrors are often placed in stores, parking lots, and intersections to improve security.
What is the difference of curved mirror and flat mirror?
Curved mirrors have a reflective surface that is curved inward or outward, causing light rays to converge or diverge. This allows curved mirrors to form both real and virtual images. In contrast, flat mirrors have a flat reflective surface and only produce virtual images that are the same size as the object.
What of these is true of convex mirrors?
Convex mirrors diverge light rays, making objects appear smaller and upright. They have a wider field of view compared to flat or concave mirrors. Convex mirrors are commonly used in rear-view car mirrors to provide a wider perspective of the surroundings.
What type of mirrors used in most of the department stores?
Most department stores use flat mirrors for their dressing rooms and makeup sections. These mirrors provide an accurate reflection of the person standing in front of them and are easy to maintain.
Why not concave mirrors are suitable for make up?
Both concave and convex mirrors will distort the image of the face if used when applying make-up. Which is why flat mirrors are used instead.

Which types of mirrors are used in solar cookers?
Solar cookers typically use flat or parabolic mirrors to concentrate sunlight onto a cooking area. Flat mirrors reflect and direct sunlight onto a cooking surface, while parabolic mirrors focus sunlight onto a single point to generate high temperatures for cooking. Both types of mirrors are commonly used in various designs of solar cookers.
What are mirrors?
A mirror is a flat reflective surface, most commonly used by people to look at themselves.
What is the difference of curved mirror and flat mirror?
Curved mirrors have a reflective surface that is curved inward or outward, causing light rays to converge or diverge. This allows curved mirrors to form both real and virtual images. In contrast, flat mirrors have a flat reflective surface and only produce virtual images that are the same size as the object.
Which is correct plane mirror or plain mirror?
A plane mirror is a flat, as opposed to convex or concave, mirror.A plain mirror is just a ordinary mirror as used in a household. These are usually flat mirrors so they are also plane mirrors.Many households have small bathroom mirrors which magnify in this case they would be concave plain mirrors and not concave plane mirrors

What are mirrors with a flat surface?
to make an reflection

Why is it that the side mirrors in vehicles are curved mirrors?
convex (curved) mirrors show more space than flat mirrors do also the images are smaller than they really are
