Answers
Method#1
if we want to find which type of mirror is given to us then we will just touch it and there will be a curve in spherical mirror if the shiny part is inside the curve then it is a CONCAVE MIRROR and if the shiny part is outside of the curve then it is a CONVEX MIRROR. If there is no curve then it is a PLANE MIRROR

Method#2
Take the mirrors and make a setup of image formation if the and find th focus of the mirror using a screen try making an sharpest image on the screen that will be the focus, if image is formed then it is a CONCAVE MIRROR and if sharp image is not formed then it is CONVEX MIRROR or PLAIN MIRROR.
to differentiate the PLAIN MIRROR and CONVEX MIRROR just see that the image is enlarged or diminished if the image is enlarged or diminished then it is CONVEX LENS and image size is same as object then it PLAIN MIRROR.
