Convex mirror.......

paddukrishna: how can you say?...can you explain?..
jitpritom99: because if the rays passes through the focus, then they produces image of equal size.
jitpritom99: also.. m= h'/h... and m=-1, ie. -h=h'
jitpritom99: or h=-h'
jitpritom99: so object should be top of principal axis and image should be below principal axis,ie. real imange
jitpritom99: and concave mirrors produces real image
jitpritom99: sorry by accidentally I have written convex, its not.. its concave
jitpritom99: hope u understand
paddukrishna: ok... thank you.

The mirror must be a spherical mirror (concave mirror) as the magnification in plane mirror is never -1 but always 1. Also convex mirror always produces images smaller than the size of the object so it's magnification is always less than 1.

Hence it is a concave mirror.
