Making a Face

Question:
Can you put the facial features back in the right place?

Instructions:
1. Rotate the mirrors until a complete face appears.

Why?
The easiest way to make a complete face is similar to drawing a pentagram. When the mirror is perpendicular to the corner of a pentagram, the picture on it will get reflected by the other four mirrors which then form the image at the point of observation. The facial fearures on the mirrors are actually different in size. Those on the nearer mirrors are smaller while those on the farther mirrors are larger.
