Mirror refers to any smooth polished or shining surface, that can reflect the light beam and form images. It can be of two types, i.e. plane mirror and a spherical mirror. The mirror whose reflecting surface is flat is a plane mirror whereas a mirror with the curved reflecting surface is termed as a spherical mirror. A spherical mirror is of two types, i.e. convex mirror and a concave mirror. A convex mirrorhas a reflecting surface that bulges outside.
On the contrary, in a concave mirror, the reflecting surface bulges inwards.
The main difference between a convex and concave mirror lies in the image formed by the two mirrors, i.e. while convex mirror forms diminished image, the concave mirror either forms an enlarged image or a diminished one, depending upon the position of the object.
