A curved mirror is a mirror with a curved reflective surface, which may be either convex (bulging outward) or concave (bulging inward). Most curved mirrors have surfaces that are shaped like part of a sphere, but other shapes are sometimes used in optical devices. The most common non-spherical type are parabolic reflectors, found in optical devices such as reflecting telescopes that need to image distant objects, since spherical mirror systems suffer from spherical aberration.
Convex lenses makes an object appear larger and closer. They curve inwards toward the center.
The opposite of convex is concave. Concave shapes have an inward curve, while convex shapes have an outward curve.
Convex lenses protrude or curve out, concave lenses curve in, like a cave...
Convex lens curve outwards.
Concave shapes curve inward, like a cave, while convex shapes curve outward, like a bump.
Convex shapes curve outward, like a dome, while concave shapes curve inward, like a cave.
concave and convex refer to the curve of the mirror. if it is concave, it curves in at the middle, like a 'cave'. if it is convex, it curves out at the middle, like an eye. think of a spoon - one side is convex, the other is concave. this curve will affect the image the mirror shows.
The two types of curved mirrors are concave and convex mirrors. Concave mirrors curve inward and can create both real and virtual images, while convex mirrors curve outward and only produce virtual images.
An open curve, perhaps.
A convex curve in the shaft of a column
yes
A concave polygon has lines that curve inwards whereas a convex polygon has lines that curve outwards and they are found on and inside spheres
