Sign convention

                                                       rules








                                                                        Mirror formula:-
                   All distances parallel to the principal axis are
                     measured from the pole of the mirror.                 1/v+1/u=1/f
                  All the distances measured to the right of the
                 origin (along + x-axis) are taken as positive while   Magnification=-v/u
                those measured to the left of the origin (along - x-
                           axis) are taken as negative.

                 Distances measured perpendicular to and above
                  the principal axis (along + y-axis) are taken as
                                   positive.
