A convex mirror can produce a magnified image but only in certain conditions or cases.
Normally, when a real object is present, a convex mirror can only produce a virtual upright image of reduced size,
But by reversing the rays in the diagram below, where a virtual object (rays that would converge into a real image) replaces a virtual image, a real magnified image can form. This is the same basic concept of how a secondary convex mirror magnifies the primary concave mirror’s image in a Cassegrain Reflector .

HEY!!
_________
NO!! CONVEX MIRROR CANNOT FORM MAGNIFIED IMAGE ..A CONVEX LENS CONVERGE THE RAYS GIVING YOU A SMALLLER IMAGE .
but a MAGNIFIED image can be formed when the object is virtual and image is real which is not possible for normal setup

THANKS!!
