A.) It will be larger than the vase and upright.
B.) It will be smaller than vase and upright
C.) It will be larger than the vase and inverted

Answer 1

To get to know the characteristics of the image formed, you complete the ray diagram. 
When the object is place beyond C the image formed is usual smaller than the object. 
The image is also inverted. 
∴The best statement that describes the image is D.) It will be smaller than the vase and inverted

Answer 2

If you try to trace the lines going through the concave mirror, the top of the vase will be reflected smaller and inverted. 

D.) It will be smaller than the vase and inverted
