उत्तर

A light ray coming from a point on object AB passes through the principal focus and after reflection, it becomes parallel to the principal axis in accordance with laws of reflection and the other ray passing through the centre of curvature strikes the mirror normally i.e. 90 degrees. Hence it will reflect back. These two reflected rays coincide at a point where the image is formed. The image, A'B' is real, inverted, and diminished in size.
