the correct answer is (b) as a virtual image cannot be captured on a screen which means it cant be photographed so statement 1 is correct and a virtual image is formed by a convex mirror and It has diverging rays so a virtual image can also be defined as an image formed by diverging rays so statement two is correct but the reason for first statement is that a virtual image cannot be captured on a screen so (b) is the correct answer

(D) opt as we can definitely capture image of virtual image when we take photo of the mirror and the virtual image is defined correctly
