    A convex mirror is a mirror that bulges outward to show reflection. You will see these kind of mirrors in cars and bikes. The reflecting surface moves away from the center of the mirror.

    What Is The Concave Mirror?

    Concave mirrors, also know as converging mirrors, are a bit caved in. They collect light that falls on them. The light reflects at angles at different spots. Concave mirrors are used to magnify objects.
