Imagine you are standing in front of a mirror, facing it.
Raise your left hand. Raise your right hand. Look at your
reflection. When you raise your left hand your reflection
raises what appears to be his right hand. But when you tilt
your head up, your reflection does too, and does not appear
to tilt his/her head down. Why is it that the mirror appears
to reverse left and right, but not up and down?

Answer Posted / brian kendig

A mirror doesn't reverse left and right; it reverses front
and back. When you raise your right hand, the image in the
mirror also raises its hand on the right side of the mirror.
The only discrepancy is that you interpret that to be the
"left hand" of the inside-out image in the mirror.
