Answer:

Principal axis:

It’s an imaginary line passing through the optical centre and the centre of curvature of any lens or a spherical mirror.

Radius of Curvature (r):

It’s the linear distance between Pole and the Center of curvature.

Pole (p) :

It’s the midpoint of the spherical mirror.

Radius of Curvature (r):

It’s the linear distance between Pole and the Center of curvature.

hope this helps u

Focus

It’s a point on the axis of a mirror wherein rays of light parallel to the axis converge  or appear to diverge after reflection.

Principal Axis

It’s an imaginary line passing through the pole and the centre of curvature of the mirror.

Centre of Curvature

The reflecting surface of the mirror forms a part of an imaginary sphere, whose centre is known as the centre of curvature.

Pole

it’s the midpoint of the spherical mirror.

Radius of Curvature

The reflecting surface of the mirror forms a part of an imaginary sphere, whose radius is known as the radius of curvature. It is the distance between the Pole and the Centre of curvature.
