Mirror with curved surfaces are called spherical mirrors.

These mirrors are different from plane mirrors and follow the mirror equation.

A mirror with reflecting surface curved outwards is called a convex mirror.

In these mirrors, the bulging portion is the reflecting surface.

Convex mirrors form virtual, diminished, erect images.

These mirrors find extensive use.

They are used in vehicles as rear view mirror because they form diminished images and thus give us a larger view.

⚫Explain in detail about convex mirrors.

▶️Imagine a hollow sphere, made of glass. Now, cut a part of this sphere and polish one side completely which was actually the inner part of the sphere.

▶️This mirror will be called a convex mirror or diverging mirror.

▶️It always makes a virtual image of any object.

▶️Convex mirror is curved reflecting surface in which the mirror bulges out towards the object.

▶️The image you see is always smaller than it actually is.

▶️Convex mirrors are used as driving mirrors in vehicles, used in street lights as reflectors, used by security personnel to watch over a large area.
