Option a is correct,

Concave mirrors are used as reflectors in torchlight because as per the rules of image formation by a concave mirror when an object is placed at focus the image is formed parallel to the principal axis, as a result, a parallel beam of light rays are formed due to its parabolic shape.

Due to this phenomenon, we are able to see in the darkness from a distance.

HEY!!

____________________________

⏺️Option B is correct that is concave mirror.

⏺️The concave mirrors are placed behind the bulb.

⏺️The bulb is exactly at the focus.

⏺️When the bulb is switched on, some of its rays are incident to the concave mirror behind it.

⏺️As a result, the rays are reflected parallely and towards infinit (if object is placed at focus then the image forms at infinity). 

⏺️⏺️Hence, we are able to see clearly when we on the torch.
