A concave mirror would focus the light back towards the focal point of the mirror. You would not be able to use the mirror effectively with a concave.
Inner curved surface is known as concave mirror because inner side of the spherical mirror is polished to reflect the light is called concave mirror,and concave mirror is know because concave mirror converges parallel beam of light.
no concave mirror is in shape of concave mirror
why do we use concave mirror as converging mirror
Concave mirrors are used in telescopes. Convex mirrors are used as side-view mirrors in cars.
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.

They both will give distorted images, but where a convex mirror (which bulges out like a bubble) has a right-side up image, a concave mirror (which bows in like a bowl) has an upside-down image.
The wing mirror or side mirror of a car is convex. It curves out to be able to see with a wider angle.
A slightly concave mirror will produce a magnified image. Most shaving mirrors have one flat side and one concave side. Try looking in each side to find the one that magnifies.
Such a mirror is concave.
