उत्तर
The distance from the pole to the focus is called focal length.
Explanation:
The distance from the pole (the center of a spherical mirror or lens) to the focus (the point where light rays converge or appear to diverge) is called the focal length.

AB is the object, A1B1 is its image. MM' is the position of the mirror. Complete the ray diagram and find the position of the center of curvature and focus of the mirror. Also, measure the focal length.
The diagram below shows the parallel rays incident on a convex mirror. C is the centre of the curvature of the mirror. By drawing the paths of the reflected rays, label the focus F and hence find the focal length of the mirror.
