Hold this page in front of a mirror. Do they look the same in the mirror? H B A C

Correct Answer

When letters H, B, A, C are held in front of a mirror, some letters like A and C may look similar or slightly different. Letters like H and B may appear reversed in the mirror.

This happens because mirrors create a lateral inversion of images.
