A signal (image) can interfere with a superheterodyne receiver if fits the following equation.
Image = Signal +/- 2 x I.F.
Which says that a signal has the capacity to interfere with a superhet receiver if its frequency is equal to the signal frequency (1200 kHz in our question) plus or minus twice the IF (450 kHz in our question).
So one possible image is: 1200 + ( 2 x 450 ) = 2100 kHz (possible).
And the other: 1200 - ( 2 x 450 ) = 300 kHz (not likely).
