Explanation:
As we know that when a ray passes through center of curvature it falls back. It happens as it is a centre of sphere , which act as normal to circumference (concave mirror).
So when a ray incident parallel to principal axis it passes through focus because here the normal for the incident ray and reflected ray is the line connecting the point of incidence( CA): figure:; and the center of curvature so, according the law of reflection the angle of incidence is = angle of reflection
