a) |
Inverted, enlarged 60 cm to the right |
b) |
Erect, diminished 12 cm to the left |
c) |
Inverted, enlarged 60 cm to the left |

(b) When an object is placed between and (focal length) of the diverging lens, the image is virtual, erect and diminished as shown in the graph. To calculate the distance of the image from the lens, we apply cm (to the left to the diverging lens.) |
