Answer:
HEY ,MATE
HERE'S UR ANSWER
Principal axis:- It is a straight line joining the central point P (called pole) and geometrical centre to hollow sphere of which mirror is a part (called centre of curvature )
Centre of curvature:- The centre of curvature of a spherical mirror is the centre of the hollow sphere of glass of which the mirror is a part
Focus of cancave mirror:- It is a point F on the principal axis where a beam of light , coming parallel to the principal axis meet after reflection.
Focus of convex mirror:- A number of rays parallel to principal axis when reflected appear to meet at a point on principal axis the point is known as principal focus of convex mirror.
Focal length :- Distance between pole P and focus F is called focal length.

★ PRINCIPAL AXIS ★
THE STRAIGHT LINE THAT GOES TO THE CENTRE OF THE SPHERICAL MIRROR AT RIGHT ANGLE TO THE MIRROR IS CALLED PRINCIPAL AXIS
★ FOCAL LENGTH ★
IT IS THE DISTANCE ON PRINCIPAL AXIS FROM PRINCIPAL FOCUS TO THE POLES OF SPHERICAL MIRROR
★ PRINCIPAL FOCUS ★
IT IS A POINT ON PRINCIPAL AXIS WHERE ALL REFLECTED RAYS ARE EITHER CONVERGE OR DIVERGE
★ CENTER OF CURVATURE ★
IT IS THE CENTRE OF THE SPHERE WHICH MIRROR IS A PART
★ RADIUS OF CURVATURE ★
IT IS A DISTANCE ON PRINCIPAL AXIS FROM CENTRE OF CURVATURE TO THE POLES OF SPHERICAL MIRROR
