Step-by-step explanation:
- A curved mirror is a mirror with a curved reflecting surface.
- The surface may be either convex or concave.
- Most curved mirrors have surfaces that are shaped like part of a sphere, but other shapes are sometimes used in optical devices
- A concave mirror, or converging mirror, has a reflecting surface that is recessed inward (away from the incident light).
- Concave mirrors reflect light inward to one focal point.
- They are used to focus light.

Answer:
Basically, the reflecting surface of convex mirror bulges outside while concave mirror's bulges inwards. The major difference is the image that forms in these two mirrors. In other words, diminished images form in convex mirrors while enlarged images form in concave mirrors.
