Concave mirror answer may be
In optics, an image is defined as the collection of focus points of light rays coming from an object. A real image is the collection of focus points actually made by converging rays, while a virtual image is the collection of focus points made by extensions of diverging rays.
A virtual image larger than the image can be produced by a concave mirror.
If a hollow sphere is cut into parts and the outer surface of the cut part is painted, then it becomes a mirror with its inner surface as the reflecting surface. This kind of mirror is known as a concave mirror. Light converges at a point when it strikes and reflects back from the reflecting surface of the concave mirror. Hence, it is also known as a converging mirror. When the concave mirror is placed very close to the object, a magnified and virtual image is obtained. However, if we increase the distance between the object and the mirror then the size of the image reduces and a real image is formed. So, the image formed by the concave mirror can be small or large and it can also be real or virtual.
