EEJ MAIN Aptitude QUESTION #10936
Question 1
If you look at a capital letter B in a vertical mirror (mirror on the right side), which of the following best describes the image?
  • B flipped horizontally (left-right reversed)✔️
  • B flipped vertically (upside down)
  • B rotated 180°
  • B unchanged
Correct Answer Explanation

A vertical mirror (placed on the right or left side of the object) causes a left-right (horizontal) reversal.

The letter B in a vertical mirror appears as a reversed B — the bumps of the B now face left instead of right. This is a horizontal flip.

Key distinction: A horizontal mirror (placed above/below) causes an up-down flip. A vertical mirror causes a left-right flip. Rotation 180° would flip both horizontally and vertically simultaneously.
