Real image is the one which is formed by the intersection of Real rays...
In Convex mirror we have only two possible locations of object where it xan be placed...
1 ) Object is at infinity this means light rays coming from the object is parallel...in this case , Image of the object will be formed behind the convex mirror , which is formed by extending rays ( imaginary rays ) represe nted by dotted line...Image is point size and formed at the principal focus...As the image is formed by intersection of imaginary rays..so it is virtual
2) When object is placed at some finite distance from pole...In this case again image is formed by imaginary rays ( see snap )...which is a virtual image..
So , Convex mirror always form Virtual image not real...
