the concave mirror of focal length will form erect and magnified image when kept between focus and pole ( it could be at a distance of 5 cm ,10cm etc till 15 from the pole)
to obtain inverted image, an object can be placed at focus( 15 cm from pole) or between focus and centre of curvature( at 16, 20 etc cm till 30) or at centre of curvature ( at 15 cm from pole) or beyond centre of curvature (more than 15cm from pole) or at infinity
so a concave mirror can form erect as well as inverted image of an object
