Solution

A concave mirror converges rays of light whereas a convex mirror diverges rays of light.

Explanation:

A concave mirror converges rays of light, whereas a convex mirror diverges rays of light. A concave mirror curves inward, bending parallel light rays toward a single focal point after reflection. Conversely, a convex mirror bulges outward, causing parallel light rays to spread apart as if originating from a point behind the mirror.
