The correct Answer is:
To determine the number of capital letters that are not laterally inverted by a plane mirror, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Lateral Inversion Lateral inversion refers to the phenomenon where the left side of an object appears on the right side and vice versa when viewed in a mirror. We need to identify which capital letters remain unchanged when reflected in a plane mirror. ### Step 2: List the Capital Letters The capital letters of the English alphabet are: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z. ### Step 3: Identify Letters Not Laterally Inverted Now, we will analyze each letter to see if it looks the same when reflected in a mirror: - A: Not laterally inverted - B: Laterally inverted - C: Laterally inverted - D: Laterally inverted - E: Laterally inverted - F: Laterally inverted - G: Laterally inverted - H: Not laterally inverted - I: Not laterally inverted - J: Laterally inverted - K: Not laterally inverted - L: Laterally inverted - M: Not laterally inverted - N: Laterally inverted - O: Not laterally inverted - P: Laterally inverted - Q: Laterally inverted - R: Laterally inverted - S: Laterally inverted - T: Not laterally inverted - U: Not laterally inverted - V: Not laterally inverted - W: Not laterally inverted - X: Not laterally inverted - Y: Not laterally inverted - Z: Laterally inverted ### Step 4: Count the Letters From the analysis, the letters that are not laterally inverted are: A, H, I, K, M, O, T, U, V, W, X, Y. Counting these letters gives us a total of 11 letters. ### Final Answer The total number of capital letters that are not laterally inverted by a plane mirror is **11**. ---
