Answer:

A ray of light parllel to principal axis (shows that u=∞) after reflection from concave mirror (of focal length f) passes through.

  u−1+v1=f1

So  ∞−1+v1=f−1

 v1=f−1

v=−f

i.e. it passes through focus.

A ray of light parllel to principal axis (shows that u=∞) after reflection from concave mirror (of focal length f) passes through.

 \frac{ - 1}{u}  +  \frac{1}{v}  =  \frac{1}{f}  \\  \\  \frac{ - 1}{ \infty }   +   \frac{1}{v} =   \frac{ - 1}{f}  \\  \\  \frac{1}{v} =  \frac{ - 1}{f}   \\  \\ v =  - f

i.e. it passes through focus.
