Vault ,or curved ceiling
i think its curved
since the convex mirror is curved outwards the the focus is behind the mirror

It is a mirror whose reflecting surface is curved, not flat (as in a plane mirror).
a shape of a lens is curved outwards and concave one are curved in wards
If our image is real and inverted and smaller than the object ,then it is a concave mirror; if the image is virtual and erect and larger than the object,then it is a convex mirror; if the image is of the same size as of the object,it is a plane mirror. that is how we can distinguish or identify which of the given mirrors are what. BUT if the angle is very small you cannot tell Plane is flat, convex it curves outwards and concave it curves inwards.
The reflecting surface of a mirror is flat.
what are the parts of the curved mirror
The convex mirror curves outwards while the concave mirror would curve inwards. The convex mirror traces light out making faraway objects bigger like in a telescope.
Convex when it bends outwards, concave when it bends inwards
Concave: a curved like a segment of the interior of a circle or hollow sphere; hollow and curved Convex:having a surface that is curved or rounded outwards plane-a flat mirror
The word 'convex' refers to a shape that is curved outwards. In geometric terms, a convex shape bulges outward, resembling the exterior of a sphere or a dome. This is in contrast to 'concave,' which describes a shape that curves inwards.
