(1) A virtual image -7 cm tall and 17 cm away from a mirror is created by an object 7 cm away from a mirror. How tall is the object? What kind of mirror created the image? What is its focal length?

(2) If a 1.75 m tall man is looking at a plane mirror from an eye which is 15 cm from the top of their head, what is the minimum length that the mirror must be so that he can just barely see his whole body in the mirror? How far up from the ground must the mirror be placed?
