1/40 +1/v =1/20,v=40cm to right of lens. Let image point be P. In order to see image, a ray emerging from P has to reach hmax below axis. the ray that reaches hmax would have to touch the top most point of the lens. This point, Q, is 5cm above the axis.let R be centre of lens and point 60 cm to right be S,let eye be E.

RQP and ESP are similat triangles

ES/QR=PS/PR, hmax/5=20/40, hmax=2.5cm
