1. Draw a concave mirror with its principal axis. 2. Mark the focal point ( F ) on the principal axis, to the left of the mirror. 3. Place the object (an arrow, for instance) to the left of the mirror, 28cm away. 4. Draw two incident rays: one parallel to the principal axis, then reflected through the focal point; and another through the focal point, then reflected parallel to the principal axis. 5. The point where these reflected rays intersect is the image location. For magnification (m), you can use the formula: m=−dodi Now, you can substitute the calculated di into the magnification formula to find the magnification.
